One area of my life I am successful in is my career. Work is going very well lately, and I am succeeding and am gaining recognition at work for my achievements.

My love life has been a disaster, on the other hand. It's been years since I had a healthy relationship. Years. And there were a few - not all have been awful, but it's been some time since then.

At least I have success in one area of life. That makes me feel a little better. I've given up on love for now. I don't want to date and I have no interest in men at this stage. Funny too, since I dated quite a bit during the year following my divorce, and now in year two, I've decided to not date at all and focus on ME.

I am in a transitional spot in my life. My old self is transforming into a new self, but it's taking time.... that's OK. I am in no rush. I have a home, my beloved cat, my health, my close friends, an extended social circle, a social life of sorts, and my family. Life is pretty good, considering.
