Self Worth
While hiding in my own nostalgic solitude, a thought just crossed my mind.
As you move ahead , you lose the bunch of people you used to have around. And as much as it hurts to find yourself alone ,at the same time it's peaceful to stay and feel your self presence take control. That simple feeling of privacy and relief to be able to acknowledge your own worth rather than crave for another one on this earth is what makes you whole.
I thought there was something wrong with me that I prefer solitude so much. Mainly because people I know love to be surrounded by friends and family.
Over time my friends moved away and family got busy with their own lives. I never thought to replace them with more friends. I enjoy spending time by myself reading, going for walks, listening to music or in creative activities. I love the time I get for self reflection.
There were times I felt I made wrong choices by deciding to be alone but that mainly happens when I compare my life to others. Honestly, I feel my life is very peaceful when I consider how many people have challenges working through people's emotions in relationships.
I envy the strength you have. I have lost myself in many relationships to where i have no strength and am lost. Solitude is the way until i find myself and rebuild! @Healwithme11

The people who were there and not now never was to begin with. I am where you are some friends left me why I do not know. I made a decision that those who walked away from me were not real friends to begin with. The ones who stick by you now are true friends because they care.
That was well said.
