Meet Single Parents - i Heart Single Parents Social Network

An online community for single parents to meet, chat and find support!

Sometimes I wonder what my place is in this world. There should be more than routine of living and just getting by. Outside of raising your child, which I know is the center of your life, your joy and pride, the reason you made some of your decisions and where it has taken you...How do single parents find meaning in their life

I've seem to have lost myself and find I cannot offer anything to anyone expect what I have put into raising my son and being stuck in same routine...finding that I don't have any time or not using my time wisely

What does it all mean?

Well, it means that you want to build more out of your life, in my mind. It means you have a piece of you that wants to experience more than just the same old, same old.

You might take a look at a book called "No Opportunity Wasted". I found it helped me see past the day to day and start making bigger dreams for myself -- and once I knew what they looked like, I was able to start working towards making them happen.

I'd caution on "dogging" yourself though. Look at what you have accomplished. That you *can* maintain a routine among a wide variety of challenges. That's pretty neat stuff! Good job!

I'll check into the book this weekend, maybe the library will have a copy.

Thanks for your words of encouragement

Good gracious, Kim. Just when I think that I couldn't think any worse of your ex...... Sheesh! If it were me, I'd definitely inform the case worker and attorney know BEFORE you talk to Camille. Kim, you're freaking stronger than Wonder Woman for goi…

Divorces are messy business. There is no way around that. However, after some of the craziness begins to settle the past becomes more clear. In 2005 I went to China with my husband for a few weeks. Shortly after returning home, I became severely ill…
