Tranquility

I often wonder, am I too comfortable being alone? Is it healthy? I certainly don’t mind it, and most of the time I prefer it. I have a few friends (mostly in different cities) but I’m not someone who’s phone rings off the hook with invites for getting together.

I’ve been on my own for so long now that even those friends I do have, have stopped asking me questions like “how’s your love life, are you seeing anyone, do you think you will ever get married again”? And to the last one, I say NO!! Been there, done that. Mostly, I’m just comfortable in my own little world. Working in a career I love, spending time with family, when they take the time the visit & a few friends, periodically.

But the reality is, I like tranquility. i like my space, my time, my wine, my hot tub, my firepit, my sunsets and sunrises. I like my solo life, just the way it is. And maybe, for me at least, that’s the way it was always meant to be.
