These things are only temporary relief, and there is nothing  worse than
being surrounded by people and feeling completely alone and  empty. Life
exists only where there is constant growth.

This is a really deep little paragraph. I did the *alone yet with
others* thing for many years.  Lost my individuality and identity.  Now
I am finally able to see myself ---as is--.  Far from perfect....
Longing to help.....Good hearted and yet somehow wiser in that I know my
limits including when helping another is hurting me.

I truly think that attractiveness comes from being oneself. When you are
in touch with this real you you are actually encouraging your best self
to shine in some way. This draws others to you as if you were a magnet.
Reminds me of a poem I wrote.....


The Real Me

I thought that when I met you
A "new person" I could be,
But things did not work out that way
As I would surely see.

I wanted you to notice me
The good points and the bad,
But all it ever seemed to do
Was make me very sad.

 I thought if I was careful
To be the best that I could be,
But little did I realize
I should have just been me.

 I hoped you'd be a friend to me
My soulmate I had found,
But when I needed you the most
You were not around.

So now it's time to start the search
For someone who'll be there,
This time I'm sure I'll be myself
And find someone who'll care.

For now I'll really strive to be
The best that I can be,
I know I'll meet the one for me
I'm sure that you'll agree.

I've learned my lesson, it is true
Acting's made me see,
I'd rather live my life alone
Than pretend that I'm not me...
