L anguishing in solitude
O blivious to life outside
N obody to disturb me
E verybody come back!
Has been a strange week for me. Hubby has been away on his travels, my parents are enjoying a well deserved break overseas, my sis is overseas, the kids are away from home and my closest friends have either been working or out of town.
When I have people all around me, I reach a point where I crave time alone. There are only a few people who understand how deep a need this is in me. Some think it's because they have upset me or done something wrong. This isn't the case at all. If I don't have time to myself I become moody and withdrawn. I know for a fact, a few of my blog buddies have been on the receiving end of some of my mood swings. The best thing to do is just leave me be and I'll be back to my bouncy self in no time.
*bounces around*
Knock knock - is it safe to come in?
ReplyDeleteCan't you read the Do Not Enter Sign? Just kidding sweetie, you know you are always welcome. Did you bring chocolate?
ReplyDeleteMissy - I was think about you last night. Remember when we used to sit on my porch, drink wine and watch the rugby men? I was thinking of heading over there but didn't want to give Barb the headache of deleting my posts *giggles*
ReplyDeleteDear Kb,
Suggesting you'd like to be thrown up against the wall by Carlos Spencer is inappropriate for our public forum. Perhaps you should channel that energy into writing a few more articles. I'm looking forward to reading what you come up with.
Poor Barbabra, do you think she misses me?
That's not exactly what she said but you get the general idea.
Happy Days
LMAO
**Barging through the door**
ReplyDeleteWhoops.....PMS time huh?
Get out, I need to alone but you can leave the chocolate you brought with you behind :)
ReplyDeleteEverybody needs their bit of space, KB. I have too much - nobody loves me! Boo hoo hoo!
ReplyDeleteI love ya hun. *breaks bar of chocolate in half and hands Dickiebo a piece*
ReplyDeleteHa-ha, I know exactly what you mean.
ReplyDeleteHubby was home for three weeks and even though we did great things together, in the end I couldn't wait for him to go back to work. He has now and the computer is mine, all mine for two whole days before he is off again.
That's why I didn't get around blogging a lot either because he hogged the damned thing all the time.
lol
Looks like I'm not so alone in my situation after all.
ReplyDeleteI think your acrostic says it all, it tells the range of feelings perfectly
ReplyDeleteThanks hun.
ReplyDeleteAlone does not mean lonely. aloneness is to be accepted because it is ultimate. After every profound experience, a person finds himself alone, falls in his center from the periphery of his existence!
ReplyDeleteAloneness is so utterly beautiful because it is so profoundly free. It is absolute freedom!
Aloneness misinterpreted looks like loneliness. Loneliness is when you are missing the other; the other being any excuse that helps you drown your consciousness, any intoxicant, a man, a woman a book, anything that takes you away from self remembrance.
Aloneness means when the other is no longer needed, and you are enough unto yourself, so enough, that you can share your aloneness with the whole existence, and it is so inexhaustible that it will still remain there!
You are rich when you are alone.
You are poor when you are lonely!
Mona - thank you for those wonderful words of wisdom. For a minute there, when I saw your comment, I thought it was Friday.
ReplyDeleteMy 55 has been ready for days. Looking forward to reading yours.
You can't fool me, KB. I know what makes you tick. You should know that.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Re: typos. It's not me - it;s shitty google. Didn't you see my disclaimer?
M - Yes, I know you know, Mr Smarty Pants.
ReplyDeleteAs for typos - fuckin google
