"I was never less alone than when by myself"
Edward Gibbon
I must be one of the lucky ones. I really enjoy my own company. I think that I inherited that trait from my father, who inherited it from his father. And, I know that I passed it down to my daughter. I really don't know how to be lonely! I wish that I could pass it on to others!!

About Being Alone
Being lonely isn't having no one around you, it's the feeling that there is no one around you who cares.
Unknown
Such a sad quote. My heart goes out to everyone who feels that no one cares about them. I am sure that the feelings rise especially at this time of the year, but it must be difficult to handle at any time. My advice... do whatever you can to help other people. Maybe helping others will take the loneliness from your own shoulders.

Staying IN Your Comfort Zone
There are many of us who want to stay right there... in our comfort zone, but a friend pointed out to me that it might not be the wisest thing to do. If you don't venture out every once in a while you won't know how to deal with a situation that REALLY IS OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE! Maybe there is something to that... venture out just a little bit each day until it stops being so scary.

Quotes For a Tuesday Morning in October
Summary: I started a quotations site a few years ago because I was drawn to them. Little did I know where it would lead. Now I have some of my favorites to share with you!
Words seem to play a huge part in our lives. We see a quote that we like and we instantly snip it out of the magazine and save it so that we can read it again. Some are inspirational, some of them make us laugh, some remind of us of ourselves. Whatever the reason, we are drawn to words that have been linked together. We can learn so much from them. In fact, a quote can change our lives or our way of thinking for at least a short amount of time. I have chosen some of my favorite quotes that I want to share.
1. What is sad for women of my generation is that they weren't supposed to work if they had families. What were they going to do when the children are grown - watch the raindrops coming down the window pane?
Jackie Kennedy
2. A sad soul can kill quicker than a germ.
John Steinbeck
3. I'm not alone, but I am lonely without you.
Unknown
4. Having gone through all of this, I feel in some ways calmer now. It's strange, but sad. I think I'll always be sad.
Nicole Kidman
5. Crying is the refuge of plain women, but the ruin of pretty ones.
Oscar Wilde
