Sometimes it feels like Im in this alone “life” that is. Sometimes I cry myself to sleep and I search for the reason I cried the following morning, it never appears. Sometimes I indulge in junk food downing it with coke afterwards, with my headphones in my ears, listening to “How does it feel by D’angelo”. I watch myself and can actually see Im panicking, always with the fear of not having something to do, someone to talk to or a place to go. When I find myself not part of my peers or their activities I get bored and restless, feeling as though my self esteem has taken a hit. I become unhappy for no apparent reason.
When the week riches Wednesday I start planning the weekend ahead in my mind, I simply ask myself why God created hormones, emotion, and feeling. Couldn’t he have spared some of us from the pain and just the thought of knowing you don’t have a life besides school or work? What I and we all need to establish is the difference of being alone and being lonely.
I doubt there is any young person who wants to grow old and be a considered as a “grandparent” but we young people forget one thing. We are the lonely ones more than old people. We tend to think that without our peers there is no other life. Yes we are human and yes humans are social animals but one can always find happiness outside society. As long as you don’t try too hard or focus too much on one activity. It can be good thing to be alone but not good to be lonely. Where do you stand, are you alone or lonely?

“We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone”. - Orson Welles
