Just Came Here to Sit

I just came here to sit. Not rant, or complain or even try to fix anything. Im just alone a lot way too much.. and I get sad. And sometimes I just need to sit among people.. So I am invisioning a nice room with a wooden floor, and a big fireplace burning tonight, and old record player in the next room playing some soft Ravel piano piece... and in the room are lots of couches, chairs, rockers.. and about 15 people.. all just reading or sitting, writing, and most of all just sharing this.. just this.. here. The sound of the fire crackling, the record, and we all just sit and dont fix, dont try to be happy, nor exhaust sadness, just enjoy and feel the warmth of the field of knowing connection between us all. This place is real, its here now.. I just want to sit in this.. and just be here... if you sense this.. say hello... take a warm chair and just be here. Nothing else is needed.. I am here cause i need this.. thank you all for just being

Sounds wonderful...sometimes being alone is not fun, being in a place where you have choice is a good place to find.

Enjoy.

to have choice and freedom so even take a nap anytime is a good thing. I wish communities were more like communities where people know each other

I’m sitting by the pellet stove also full sweats and a blanket and a tv show on for background noise. What is the tea of choice? I like rooibos.

I, too, find myself alone a lot of the time. Although I have an office to go to with humans in it a few days a week, on days that I work from home, I will start the day at a coffee shop to be in the presence of other humans. But, this morning, all the chairs are empty, except for mine. And it's a little chilly here.

Big hug tty....Coffee sounds wonderful right now

You're right sometimes being alone is sad

This is a great crew to hang with

The cozy fire feels divine

I brought tomato soup for lunch and will make grilled cheese
Any takers??....xo

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
