In My Solitude

I had a falling-out with a friend. Now I'm down to one, and we are both busy with jobs.

I made a list of all the churches and volunteering I've tried and discovered I don't want to go back to any of them. And I want to be honest and be as ornery as I feel. My husband is tolerating it so far. I tried to explain that I'm trying hard to act like I really am. It seems like it would help to just be genuine and stop pretending to do all those things told by radio talk show psychologists we all know.

I thought I'd make a list of all the things I don't like about people and see if it wasn't true that those are things I don't like about myself. I'll get back to you and say what I come up with.

I want to make new friends. But first, I want to feel excited about people. It's not easy for an introvert.
