find a reason to live (read all 2 entries…)
working on it 15 months ago

I am not depressed as I was when I first made that goal. Still, I am searching for a good reason. I left the soul-crushing relationship I was in. I’m in a different country and around a completely different set of people. It’s a new start for me.

It’s been hard, but I go forward every day with the idea that joy will come back into my life. That would be a reason to live.

join Toastmasters (read all 2 entries…)
It is a possibility now. 15 months ago

I left the afore-mentioned husband just two weeks ago. I no longer need permission to do anything!! Yay!

Once I settle on a place to live, I will find the closest Toastmasters and see about joining. It will be a good way to get out and meet people.
