It's not easy for all of us to make friends or find connections. I went to a bar lasts night just to have some alone time from familiar sights and smells in my house. The two people who were at the bar were loud enough for a crowded room... and the woman wanted to sing karaoke. My hippie new year resolution is to do more mindful eating; quantity and quality and to start looking for a community who has the golden years in mind.
