I surely didn’t think at 30 years old I would just now be finding the beauty in dating myself. However, here we are. It took me a while to dapple into this playing field for many reasons. From my childhood where neither parent was present, to an adult relationship from the age of 17 to 28 that deepened my pain, boy was I in for an awakening. Not the awakening we see as a burden, but the awakening that for ONCE has begun to fill my soul.
