I find it sad really that people don’t know how to be alone. I have a friend who has a birthday coming up and I said to her…take yourself out to dinner. She said…alone? Yes and then I realized that she has never really been alone.
Growing up without any siblings I was always alone. Never really made a lot of friends in school because I was always weird so I was alone. Then went to college made a few friends but always did my own thing. So I grew up basically alone but then I am the opposite of my friend.
I don’t know how to be around a lot of people.
So I can’t judge her because a lot of people kinda scare me. It’s too peoply outside sometimes and I like to stay in my home. I do think it’s healthy to have a balance of both. Knowing how to be around people and learning how to say it’s ok if I want to be alone.
If you are scared of being alone, think about the people who have no family and are actually alone. Have grace for those that don’t like a crowd. Being alone made me strong….too strong.
