“The smallest indivisible human unit is two people, not one; one is a fiction. From such nets of souls societies, the social world, human life springs.”
―Tony Kushner
To what “ nets of souls” do you belong?

To what “ nets of souls” do you belong?…
The only soul I want to belong to, is the soul I have already given my soul to ……Unfortunately, (stupid old man that I am) she lives in Israel; and I live in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, Canada — so all I can do is “dream”. Too bad I have already pledged her my heart, mind, body, and spirit.
I belong to several inner circles (“nets”); but the only “belonging” I NEED, is to one, physically-with-me, loyal (as I am loyal), trustworthy (I’ve been hurt too many times before), willing to accept and love me as I am (other than being alone, I know and like who I am), intimate, passionate, woman! That is all … ALL I need to “belong” to, right now.
Blessings!

I live with my parents and siblings. Now that I’m an adult, I get on with them better than I was a child. I do feel like I belong here, though often feel like we’re strangers to each other.
I’ve started going to workshop, and I’m hoping I’ll feel like I belong there eventually.
Once a week, I attend a training class put on by a dog club I’m officially part of. While I don’t feel an outcast, I also don’t feel like I belong.
The people I feel closest to I only communicate with through the Internet. Several I got to know face-to-face, but then I moved away from them. I’d like to have friends like that locally.
