Life will break Me, I have to remind myself of this all the time

Hi  yall

Its been so long since I've been here and write about my journey and feelings  What I can say for sure is the journey has definitely not been smooth.  Sometimes it was so rough on the emotions that throwing in the towel seemed like the only option but I remain hopeful in my quest to be happy. In the words of  Louise Erdrich

Life will break you. Nobody can protect me from that and living alone wont either, for solitude will also break  me with its yearning. I have to love. I have to feel. Its the reason I am here on earth. I am here to risk my heart. I am here to be swallowed up. And when it is that I am broken, or betrayed, or left or hurt, or death brushes near.  I will let myself sit by the apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around me in heaps, wasting away their sweetness.  And I will tell myself I tasted as many as I could.

It was not in vain.

Later.

Nols
