Weakness: Being Alone
In any situation, I don't want to be alone myself. Every time I'm by myself, I find myself feeling anxious. It all began when I began making friends out of fear of being left alone once more. When I'm surrounded by individuals I care about, I feel relieved. When I'm with them, I can be who I am. Because I was frightened of losing them, I truly don't want to argue or disappoint them.
But as I become older, I've come to understand that people are not always in our lives, there are moments when you have to be independent and alone. While some may remain, the majority depart. I'm truly grateful of those that decided to stick around despite the ups and downs.
These days, I like spending at least an hour or two alone, and I can honestly state that being by myself doesn't have to make me unhappy. There have been many changes in me recently. I can now refuse requests from people, even if it disappoints them, and I am no longer reliant on others to help me make decisions. The fact that I am able to say that I can be alone and still be relieved doesn't mean that I want to lose the individuals I cherish. Even now, being among the people I care about makes me the happiest.
Being alone is not a weakness, rather it is an opportunity to grow unnoticed.

DeleteDon't be afraid to be alone. Only yourself will always be with you in the hardships and joys of your life. I am so proud of you because you know how to value yourself and have time for yourself. Just keep going!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words, Mean, I truly appreciate it
DeleteEverything has a weakness, and that's okay. Not because you've got a weakness like that; it means you're not strong enough. No, being alone is okay; it helps you understand yourself, relax, recharge from the stress etc. Work for it more and slowly you will be okay. Never forget that you're strength is also your weakness.^^

ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me, Clarisse
DeleteYou're right! Thank you for reminding us that being alone is not always sad. Sometimes we need it to be able to concentrate on our mental health since we can focus on ourselves in times and situations like that.
ReplyDeleteThat's true
DeleteI can relate to you, but remember that I am always here, that's what I've been saying to you since the start. You're very strong and I am proud of you<3
ReplyDeleteThank you for always being there for me, Hara
DeleteThat's true. There is an advantage to being alone, but always remember that we are here for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jaz, I'm always here for you too
DeleteIt is true that being with your friends is fun and comforting since you feel safer around them. However, being alone is not a weakness. Maybe you need to just relax and cherish your own company. I hope you find peace and learn to appreciate yourself as well.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jumela, I truly appreciate your kind words
DeleteSometimes, we just need time alone to reflect on ourselves and unwind from everything that we're worrying about. There is nothing wrong with that, you are not selfish in choosing yourself first.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, thank you, Yhara
DeleteDon't be afraid to be alone, because in the end of the day all you have is yourself. Being alone doesn't mean you're sad, sometimes it can cause happiness, always remember that it is still possible for you to be happy even tho you only have yourself :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, thank you for that, Arian
DeleteBeing alone is not a weakness; it's actually a strength. It's not a bad thing if you take your time to be with yourself, because in the process, you can reflect, grab a peaceful moment, and be yourself. It's fun to be alone at times. ^^
ReplyDeleteThank you for your words, Jam
DeleteYou're definitely right, Ella. This cat tells you qoute on qoute that "People come and go". And that it's not so bad being with yourself. One of the things I learnt in my time here on Earth is our happiness depends on us, it is within us 😊
