Being Alone.
Not many people like being alone. There are people who are afraid of being alone.
I love being alone.
It's the only time when I feel relaxed, calm, balanced.
Ever since I was younger, I spent the majority of my time alone.
I am the youngest of 5 and with a large age difference there wasn't many people for me to play with.
I've always had my own room. Had my own things.
I was never the child that got hand me downs...there wasn't anyone to pass over their belongings to me.
I worried that going to college would be difficult for me.
I worried about the dorms and having to be around someone 24/7.
I worried that I would go crazy and not be able to grow used to having to share a room with someone.
A very small room at that.
I worried about a lot of things but it was all in vain
Even though I have a roommate and yes, sometimes we are together 24/7 I have a lot of alone time.
She goes out and she does her thing and be being a homebody, prefer to stay in, enjoying the time I have.
Sitting or lying on my bed, alone....it brings me peace of mine.
It allows me to collect my thoughts, think things throughly and find that state of calm.
It allows me to fully relax without having another person with me 24/7.
Growing in a big family, you really cherish your time alone.
What's better than having time to focus on yourself with the distraction of others?
