* thru the windows of my eyes..everyone can see the loneliness inside of me (c) Love Dont Live Here Anymore -Rose Royce*

I am beginning to believe that all my years of being a social recluse have finally started to take a sad and damaging toll on various aspects of my life.

The lonely existance that I once enjoyed has become a prison in and of itself. How does one go about making new friends @ age 33? Meeting woman to be involved with is difficult enough but acquiring and keeping new friends is an ardous task with 10 x the intensity.

But rest assured, this problem will only remain in my life a tad bit longer...i think part of my issue is that I live on a side of town in which i dont personally know a single soul. Next month i'll be moving closer to my job as well as to the very city that I grew up in. (Marietta GA, stand up!).

With the advent of Facebook, I have reluctantly been able to rekindle relationship with people i either lost contact with or simply tried to all out forget altogether...lol.

A new start? Maybe so. Or is it a means to tie up unresolved ends to troubling factions of my life? Who knows....

All i can say is that i now have the desire and means to make a change....
