I am alone because that is how I love to be

Why is it so that people feel lonely even though there are more people in the world than ever before! I think we as people are lonelier than ever because we are not willing to disclose our internal world with each other. On the other hand, maybe we are trying to keep our problems within ourselves rather than sharing them with our friends and relatives or with our neighbors.

Are you one of them whom sadness makes sad because one has no friends or company? I think some people like this situation because they like to be alone as their choice and find nothing wrong in that. I think all of us face that situation of loneliness sometimes but we seldom feel what loneliness actually is just because some of us grew that way or some of us are really introvert who love it that way.

I remember a song by Beatles at this point having the words “face in a jar by the door” in this reference which I thought meant is about hiding our emotions. In my views the jar here symbolizes that we do not show our true nature to the world, but put a mask on our face.

But don’t you think if we chose to live lonely in a crowd that is entirely our own choice perhaps. I am using my 15 minutes motorbike ride each way for jogging and running but not spending a minute for real conversation with my immediate neighbors. But that is not entirely my fault my neighbor is behaving the same way too.

I feel if you live such a life where you feel not uncomfortable or it is nothing unusual for you to feel lonely or if it is not tough then it’s perfectly alright for you to live that way. But if you are unhappy to go out and live in company of others just because you are facing bullies or living a discriminated life then it’s something altogether different.

I know some of us are lonely but not alone maybe we have learned ways to enjoy our own company. The going is tough, real tough dear friends so I try to keep in touch with as many as possible or you can say that I am just trying to cope with the world.

So Kenneth Eade HOA Wire: A Courtroom Drama Novel writer was not wrong when he said, “We are all alone in this world; even in a crowd” is fine with us? Probably yes but we ourselves are responsible for this situation.

I never thought that I was fine being alone but I don’t think people love mingling up anymore. They avoid talking to each other because they are too short on time.  That’s not my choice but I have no choice but to say, ‘I am alone because that is how I love to be’.  I also think there is no reason people should feel lonely unless there are reasons that contribute to loneliness.
