Bereavement

...but I'm not a reader. I haven't read a whole book in thirty years. I do believe I am on the downhill side of my grief, though. I don't really feel ready to let someone into my heart, but I am open to giving it a try if the right woman comes around. I never thought I could exist as a single, but I am learning...reluctantly.
Most people would feel blessed to have what I have at this stage of life, but it's hard to enjoy without a partner. I'm an ole country boy who could exist as a minimalist if I needed to because I do not measure happiness by wealth, I measure wealth by happiness. It feels as though I am waiting for something, but what? I guess when I find the answer to that question, I'll know.
