second life

a friend plans to leave her workplace for elsewhere. single, she is also keen to settle in another place, this time, within a new home to call her own. a note / sms forwarded, shared with someone known. it was no mere text message but a deep summon toward embracing the wider contour of life. my friend, you must go on as you have planned and i do support you! you are a good teacher and a valued person in your workplace. you will be missed. my question is ' would you feel the same if you were settled in your own nest with a beloved one?' we will never know. we need our own nest and be nestled with love life blossoming. a sense of completeness dawns.
we drive ourselves in want of "more" fulfilment in our lives...yet it is love and loving someone, a spouse or partner and soulmate who completes us. God created us so. Of course, i am speaking from my own story. i never planned my life to be this 'ending' - in solitude and nothingness (no family, no career, no validation). we do what we need to redefine 'the missing piece' to fill 'the hole in our soul'. i hear you as i have heard my own thoughts and driven my energy as you are driving today. my thoughts may not be as clear but i am in full support of you, my friend. Go and be confident always...
