Connectedness

 Darling daughter said she's in her loner era and I thought about that, because I don't mind being alone. But I don't think that's my vibe really. I need to feel connected and I'm so grateful for her and for my friends who are willing to chat on the phone - they have saved my sanity over the last year. Having someone reach out to check on me, to care about my day, to listen when something is bothering me, and to let me into their world too, has been more important than ever for me. I genuinely could not survive without it.
