I'm alone BUT not lonely since I was 13 years old. for the first time in 26 years, I know who I am as a woman. I FOUND ME that's the best freedom in the world.Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01337872676800797374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953607740696523736.post-20704030844302310742013-02-23T19:13:49.317-08:002013-02-23T19:13:49.317-08:00Thanks for sharing this, Esther.

To my surprise, just the opposite has occurred. Every year, I am more grateful that I had no children of my own. I can and do share myself with whomever I choose to and have lived a rich and full life child-free.Esthernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953607740696523736.post-80434802426511012712013-02-20T11:18:41.048-08:002013-02-20T11:18:41.048-08:00Dorothy, thank you so much.

I wonder if He gets tired of me saying how beautiful his world is. Enjoy the book.

I found your blog today thanks to Lisa Mante...Sue,<br /><br />I found your blog today thanks to Lisa Manterfield's link at Life Without Baby. So glad she provided the link!<br /><br />I agree with you that being free to explore a new route on one's own is exhilarating, especially when I invite the spirit of Christ along for the adventure. He has a way of making my head turn at just the right moment to see a soaring hawk or a vibrant wildflower at its peak in bloom.<br /><br />I purchased a Kindle version of "Childless by Marriage" today. After reading the Introduction I was amazed by your ability to capture so many of the emotions I have felt in similar situations. I look forward to finishing the story and continuing to be healed by a kindred spirit. Thanks so much for telling your story!<br /><br />DorothyDorothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370123215147442961noreply@blogger.com
