The word alone has so many negative connotations. When you're feeling like you're too little butter spread onto too much bread and you can't seem to pick yourself up you end up feeling just alone. Even when people are around, even when you're laughing with your friends and family sometimes. Being by yourself is usually a choice, if you wanted to be in a relationship or you wanted to be beside your friends/family you would be, you'd make the plans and you'd travel the miles.
I guess being alone, and being happy alone is one of the most important things you'll ever accomplish. Because things change and people leave and life doesn't stop for anybody. Even your best friends or or husband won;t be with you 24/7 and you need to be able to function well and have a sense of self-love and self-confidence were you don't need to lean on people to be genuinely happy in life. Of course we need our loved ones around us but I think that before you can really be serious with somebody you need to have a big life of your own. Your own interests, your own job, your own close set of friends, your own desires. You need to be a strong and steady individual before you really get into a serious relationship.
Being alone isn't always bad, but being alone all the time is never ever good. You need to experience life, and experience people around you and go in and out of relationships in order to realise what you want and want you don't want and you have to try to never settle for anything less than you deserve. Oh, and you're never ever alone.
