Many things have happened during the past few months that I have kept writing out of my mind. The things I need to ramble were in the mind but never have the right time to really sit down in front of the computer to key in/pen my thoughts.
So again, I try to live up to my Blog’s name as to stay as constant as possible to ramble on. Let’s bring up a recent thing that I was discussing with a friend of mine, Abyssinian (nick name). While on our way back, she brought up a topic of “Don’t you feel lonely sometimes?”
I said it once a long time ago to certain friends who have brought up this question; again, it has its perks. Being lonely is sometime a good thing; you get to have time for yourself to do the things that you like to do and not to bother anyone around you to give opinions or noises going round your ears like an annoying mosquito. Towards this path, sometimes we are easily prone to make more mistakes than having another person’s opinion on things that you do. To quote “Two Heads are better than ONE”. The key thing in here in being a single person is FREEDOM. The freedom to do what you really want to do, without anyone putting a barrier in front of you and you have to do so much explanation or making people understand the reasons of why you do the things that they find it is not right. A path that when we enjoy, but to what extent?
Can we share it with someone? Imagine this simple scenario, a 2000 piece jigsaw puzzle, the hours spent, days spent, finally, at the pinnacle moment, the last few pieces, you put it in, once completed, the sense of achievement, jumping for joy (maybe a little bit of exaggeration), you just want to say to someone, “Hey! I finished, I finished!” Here you were hoping that someone that will say congratulations, but you standing alone under a spotlight with confetti popping, but there is no one there to share with you the joy that you gain. The key thing that you loose from the FREEDOM is SHARING.
There are things that cannot be done alone, that it needs two or more people to complete the task. Just when you feel that you need someone to talk to, or maybe a shoulder to cry on, or perhaps, sexual needs! Seriously, you need someone. This is always a Ying and a Yang to things. Whatever good things of being single are the bad things to a couple, and vice versa.
I guess it’s easy to say that there are times that we need to be alone when and times that needs to be together. So, for those lonely souls walking around, find someone if you really need it, but if you think you can go on dragging through the single path, go on doing it, as it is not wrong being alone, as long we never blame ourselves for what path that we have chosen. Heck, its life. Live it.
