Do we need all these people?
Why is that we are creatures that thrive on comradeship? Sure moments of solitude are not only welcome, but needed. But it's rare that one can live that way. A kind of skewed perspective eventually kicks in. After all, one's opinion, no matter how cognitive to start with, can only contain so much direction. All the left turns will add up. Eventually.
I need to know that one's happiness is not contingent on someone or something else.
I mean, it's drilled into us, isn't it? From movies to music to books. We are lead to believe that we need to find and nurture these relationships we have. Else, you will live and die lonely, sad and depressed. Surely that's not true. I might have already put this one to the test (kind of), as I am hardly in touch with people who mean the world to me. I guess I need to know I can survive by myself, if needed. A shoulder to lean on is nice n all; but in the end, i need to figure out a solution for myself and stop the leaning that i would otherwise do.
I don't know if I'd turn to keeping copious amounts of cats around me to fill the void people might leave, but that one needs to be put to the test at some point. It would be OK if it was something that is nice to have, but not needed is my point.
And it's no fun being alone
She'd sell her soul for someone to call her own
He's been waiting for a reason to head for home
'Cause it's no fun with no one
It's no fun being alone
