It’s About More Than Having Friends

Every time I think about my move to Charleston I think about how hard it has been to establish friendships.  That has been a repeating struggle that comes up when I think about my move.   I have to remind myself that it takes longer than 6 months to establish friendships. I don’t think I have ever had a relationship for 6 months and could say “this person is my best friend” It takes a while to really establish a friendship.
I actually had an ahh haa moment the other day. I was seeing my therapist and we were talking about how hard it has been for me. And she asked me about my support system for my healing process. I realized that the underlining issue of still establishing friendships is that not only I do not have solid friendships yet I don’t have friendships that I could consider part of my support system.
I have a few women in the church that know about my traumas but no one that seems to take an interest in my healing process or being supportive. I am not bashing anyone. The church here is awesome. I have just realized that at this point I just don’t have anyone that I feel I can hand a set of pom-poms to and they would take on the job of being one of my cheerleaders.

So I gues I have another task to complete.  I need to find some people in Charleston to fit the uniform and can handle the pom poms.

To GOD Be The GLORY.  Take Care.  Much Love
