Hey Everyone,

The past year and a half has been the worst time I've ever had. The love of my life broke up with me on Christmas day (2011), my mom had a heart attack and a stroke on New Year's, my brother died on Memorial Day (2012) and my dad just simply stopped living.

I have managed to climb back up out of all this (thank the Lord) and have learned more about myself than I wanted to know (lol). Change may be a good thing, but the process can be horrific. Thankfully, I've finally arrived at a better place.

Some friends suggested that I start trying to find someone again, or at least get out there and socialize with people. I tried a Christian online dating site, but the only thing I learned from that is Christian or not—women are still women.

At my age (52) it feels odd to be dating. Something about the whole concept feels foreign to me, like trying to swim in quicksand. But hey, I thought I'd sign up with this place and give it another go.

I don't hold much hope for the dating thing, but it would be nice to meet people here and create some friendships.

Welcome to the site...may you find what your heart desires..... Life at times hands us more then we think we can handle but in some way we find our way after all...
