In my own journey I have learned to be alone, which was one of my biggest fears. Although this was difficult at first and yes it brought the waves of sadness, going places by myself, the silence, but this was part of my journey. I've come to realize that I wouldn't be who I am and what I have accomplished without facing my fear of being alone. It still gets lonely but there is also a lot of solace in my alone time. I never feel truly alone, I do have pets, but it is different. Facing challenges allows you to recognize what you can achieve; yes, you do face obstacles, but it is your determination that motivates you to push forward. I was widowed at a very young age, and it was frightful beyond words, but through turmoil and mistakes I did pick myself up and accomplished what I never thought possible. Yes, I do the should haves and shouldn't haves, but if I didn't go through the obstacles I wouldn't be where I am. It was all part of my journey. I'm thankful that I did not give up on myself. Take some time to reflect on where you are and your own journey. Never give up on yourself, find the courage to face your fears, find your solace - it's part of the journey. ~~Blessings, Cammie
