Day 3

Day 3
Originally uploaded by Echoes of Life

I've made it 3 days, woot! This is harder than it seems. I so didn't feel like taking my picture, but I did it. I'm also very very picky, so it takes a lot longer for me to be satisfied with my picture. This is me being frustrated, but it works. I guess.

I am finding myself increasingly weary of the people around me, and yet, still more lonely. I long for companions, but I suppose I'm looking in all the wrong places. It also seems I am becoming a bad judge of character, which scares me. I'm usually good at that. I have to give myself a little credit, it's a lot harder to size someone up through a computer screen. More and more I'm slinking back into isolation, but at least this time I'm bringing my camera with me. It's my only solace these days, except my son and fiance. Three things that bring me enormous joy--and frustration. Sometimes I wish I could go back to being 16. It seemed so easy to make friends then. People who thought the same way. Now it's like a needle in a haystack and when I think I have finally found someone, I come to find I have made a gross error. Ah well, try, try again.

I just want a friend.
