The part of life that keeps me deeply enchanted now despite what comes to find me is the notion that magic lives right around the corner......you never know what you are walking your way to, beautiful things that......I got to talk to a friend last night for hours.....deep diving.....my favorite kinda thing to do.....and we both shared some stuff from our lives, and seeing the trajectory of how things change always.....nothing stays the same or lasts forever.....both the light and the dark........and it is in the fact that right around the corner exists, is the magic.....but also realizing that living in this moment, THIS one.....is wildly important too.....because these moments are the ones that lead to the ones up ahead.....the ones that shape us and form our path......I had a lot of clarity and stuff come to me last night as I chatted with my friend.....sometimes it is powerful to catch a glimpse of yourself as you get to say it all......or through their eyes......I was also kind of taken aback the other night because there were some men where I was that were hitting on me in a way that was so overt, and uncomfortable it made me feel some kinda way......quite a few of them, and it was inappropriate....and it made me also realize that when you are single the boundaries of people are different.... men.....thinking that just because you are single you would welcome their attention....and well....that isn't true......like the single folks are these hard up cases and need people to behave a certain way toward them.....and I didn't like it.....it made me uncomfortable.....and it was off putting.....but I suppose the around the corner thing struck me then too....wondering if one day I won't be the single gal in the room anymore.....learning to adapt to being the single one has been a challenging part of that.....especially amid the married or coupled folks......like you suddenly got kicked out of a club and have to learn the rules of the new one.....I am used to it....mostly......but the other night my single self was palpable amid the dynamics that were playing out.....and I felt as if I was blinking red or something lol:) And I guess I wish people had more respect for single people.....realizing they are not always looking for whatever......content to live their story as is.....like don't flatter yourself fellas lol;-) I am good......so yea......magic is calling up ahead.......right around the corner.....I always believe that so deeply......and it is in that belief that allows me to be comfortable to live so fully in today:) Enjoy the day today y'all:)
