FOURTEEN: Not all alone

I can only go forward, so although I can learn from it, I refuse to dwell on the past.

When I gave the blog the title “The Truth About Me” I assumed it would be a one-way street.  The reader would discover things about me that I had never shared.  It would be a good way to reflect on the reasons that I don’t take compliments well, why I am rarely content with the way I look.  [I was going to say ‘happy with the way I look’ but I need a more accessible goal J]

This theme has been developing:  not letting others in; being so busy with detail that I am not fully present with other people.  I believe humans are called to be in relationship with each other, to communicate and share in order to create a positive environment. 





Its not that I have never felt connected. I’m just realizing that the times that I have felt alone in a crowd, I haven’t really seized the opportunity in front of me.


I'm all alone       He’s all alone
all by myself       Except for me
there is no one here beside me

    [Echo] Just remember:
    Both:
    Someone is on your side
    Jack, LRRH:
    OUR side
    Baker, Cinderella:
    Our side--
    Someone else is not
    While we're seeing our side
    Jack, LRRH:
    Our side..
    Baker, Cinderella:
    Our side--
    All:
    Maybe we forgot: they are not alone.
    No one is alone.
    Cinderella:
    Hard to see the light now.
    Baker:
    Just don't let it go
    Both:
    Things will come out right now.
    We can make it so.
    Someone is on your side
    No one is alone.
