I am okay now but it took 3 1/2 years to get here.

Smokey died on Nov. 15, 2009.  It took me 3 1/2 years to get to the point where I am okay.
I am ready to move on and find someone new.  It was the hardest and most difficult journey in my entire life.  I know one thing.  Smokey did want to me to find someone new when he passed away.  We had several discussions on this topic before he died.  If I can't find my christian soul mate man, I would rather remain single.  Life's too short not to reach your goal.  I a 57 years of age and who knows how long I will be around.  I hope I find someone and it will be my last time that is for sure.  Who knows?  I am not holding my breath but am taking it one day at a time.
Just my thoughts and experiences from Diane B.
