Comments on Single Midlife is a time of change: lifestyle, career, relationships. 2011-11-12T00:11:14Z http://www.discoveraid.com/infidelity-marriage-breakup-relationship-breakup/single.html/feed/atom WordPress By: Ruben Ruben http://www.discoveraid.com/?p=319#comment-3019 2009-09-14T10:46:59Z 2009-09-14T10:46:59Z Thank you for your comment Jo. It is a heart warming response. I was a little concerned about what this comment might include so am partly relieved but also feel that what you have written I could not have bettered myself.

The only thing I would add is that I believe in accepting the dark and the light of life, and relationships certainly throw both at us. To avoid relationships, in whatever way they may be defined is to avoid the fullness of life. By protecting ourselves if we wish to avoid relationships means our lives are less complete and possibly fulfilled.

Peace sister.

Your article is thoughtful.
identity is an ever moving fluid process, i have re discovered this thinking since I became single, shaped by our beliefs values and choices, the essence of who we are.
Although the pain of my perception of “being alone” felt unbearable” I have realised that no one is alone..we have friends and family but most importantly to me is the sense of self , the sense of who we are which gets redefined in any relationship that we enter and the sense of identity is forever in question.
We own ourselves, and no body has the right to challenge this, we are who we are, and who has the right to question our core selves……we are forever learning about our selves, and to have the ability to reflect on this and make life changes which are in essence valuing ourselves is a fantastic quality, the people we meet along the way assist this. I value all relationships that have occured in my life, learnt to let go of the pain I may have felt from them, the bitterness I felt to my marriage, but that is what shapes us…and I am very proud to be the person I am today.
Being single is a refreshing place to be …to enable further self discovery develop new and resurect old friendships which empower and guide us to fullfill our dreams.
Independence is liberating – IIfe is for living and if you / we choose to be single that is a choice to be respected.
