Journal Entry for November 11, 2007 Mood
Sunday, November 11, 2007

The last couple of days have been a little difficult.  I guess the hardest thing is trying to find something to make myself feel as though I have a purpose in life.  I have my new 'girlfriend' and dearly hope that I could continue to buil;d upon this enw relationship but wonder whether I have this relationship for the right reasons or whether its a matter of trying to get something back that I no longer have due to the break up of my marriage.  This new friend has just broken up with her spose of 12 yrs and she has 7 kids.  My family keep telling me to be careful but I feel like this woman, while 6 yrs older and a large number of kids is the kind of adult relationship I have been looking for all along.  Now that I have been separated from my wife for 5 months I feel like that marriage was based on unmet childhood needs rather than the needs of an adult man. 

Everything is all confusing and I have a rough few months ahead of me quite possibly.  The family is already talking about christmas time and meeting up together and I feel, 'well thats great what do I have to show for the year, a failed marriage and the fact that I have been out of work for 5 months'

What is the purpose of all these unknowns?
