To start off, I was an only child.....so I was mostly alone except having a Mother that was around all the time........I really didn't have anyone to play with.....so I learned to find things that were of interest to myself.....I learned not to be dependent on having someone else in my life to keep me from being lonely.

I have been married for 32 years to a person who didn't communicate well, so it was like being alone anyway.....now that I am in my own home away from him & on 10 acres out in the country.....I am definitely away from people & may go days without talking to anyone.

I have to admit...having my doggies who give me kisses & I can talk to....does help.....besides that, I have found that to truely not feel alone, I have become involved in several Bible studies in the community.....The learning that I have come away with from the Bible study has left me completely NOT lonely feeling & also, the people I have met & come close friends with them. Something I have never had in my life before now. Friends I don't have to talk to everyday......but we are here for each other when we need support......That is truely what is helping any lonelyness I have ended up with lately.
