Maybe it’s just us, but there’s some weird loneliness that seems to come with getting older. We’ve been holding it down for our loved ones for so long, and we’re caretakers by nature, but maybe it’s time to ask who’s taking care of us? Our responsibilities are more than ever, but now our support networks are spread out and we don’t want to burden anyone. What’s left is us, feeling alone, and starting to feel resentful of our lives. We know it isn’t forever, but sometimes that loneliness hits us, and we just needed to talk about it. If you’re out there feeling lonely too, you’re not in this by yourself. We see you, we understand you, we ARE you.
