Was there a point in your life that you've felt alone?
Yes, I did.
As I can still remember, there were nights that I cry myself to sleep because of the loneliness that has filled me.
I didn't have much friends growing up. And because of that I learned to be independent at such a young age. I know some of you can relate with me. And yes you got it just right....I'm an introvert.
When I was a kid I don't speak that much and I'm very very timid. I keep my thoughts to myself and just learned to be happy without the company of other people. And yes I have my family whom I also consider my friend and I grew up only comfortable to them.
The downside is that when you are all alone and you see that other kids seem to enjoy life more than you do. You really feel being left behind and then you start comparing your life with their life.And yeah that's not really good. And you start to question 'Why can't I be happy like them?' 'What is wrong with me?' 'What is in them that I lack?'.
And friends I learned this as I grew up and as I learned many life lessons the hard way...
It's okay to feel alone because in loneliness you give yourself a time to reflect of what makes you feel so. And it also makes you realize that there are more to life and for me to enjoy the life that God has given me there is no room for loneliness. And yes, I also believe that I can be happy with just myself but I can also believe that I can be happier if I let people come into my life. Making friends with them, knowing there likes and dislikes and simple enjoy there company.
And yes indeed as the saying says, No man is an island.
We live in this world with other people around us. Let us also learn to appreciate there presence and yes we can also make friends with them, I have realized that making friends makes life easier and more fun!
And also don't forget that there are people around you who cares for you and you must be thankful for them for there presence in your life.
And always put in mind that God made you not to be lonely. He made you to have dominion over all His other creation.
And whenever you feel lonely always remember that God loves you and you can talk to Him all your problems in life. God is always there to listen and make solutions for you. God is always there for you.
Thank you for reading my thoughts!
Till next....
