One of my favorite C.S Lewis quotes is “Friendship is born at that moment when one man says to another: "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . ."”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

I have realized over the years that I am absolutely not alone in my struggles.  I have an intimate, involved God.  I also have many dear friends and family in my life that love me for who I am, warts and all.  But those relationships take work, vulnerability and time investment.  I titled my blog "I thought that no one but myself" because it is through this realization that I have found the freedom to share and be transparent.
