Table for One

After going to church today I decided to eat alone at Oh George…..this is again the first time I ate alone after a month because I usually asks some friends to join me eat out.

When I entered the restaurant, I wasn't thinking I am really alone just like before because I used to eat out alone…then a woman went inside and I heard the waitress at the back asked her "table for one, ma'am?"….then I saw the woman, she's healthy just like me and probably around my age. She sat across where I was seated. It somehow dawned on me that she's like me, eating alone. Then I ask myself, is she alone because she doesn't have a lovelife? Is she alone because her husband and kids are at home and it happens that she bought something and got hungry? A lot of questions entered my mind…but what bothers me was I kept thinking of the word "table for one"…..

Now, I realize I am still alone. Still doing the thing I have been doing alone in the past years. I don't know but I felt something inside me that tells me I don't feel good. I feel that I have missed a lot of things in life…. Until when will I be hearing and feeling "table for one?"

 No one can tell….but in the ONE above can only tell.
