Alone

Some people says that they were loner or they found themselves stronger or competitive when they're alone. They hate the saying "No man is an island".

I just wandering. Is it true that being alone makes them feel stronger? I think it 's not. Maybe, being on that feeling makes them feel better instead of having a companion that would make their feelings worse. What do you think?

Then why I could say that? Hmmm..

I am a loner too. When I was in grade school, yes, I have friends but not more than five I think. Most of the times, I work alone. I do my projects and assignments alone. I learned, ofcourse with the help of the teachers but most of the times, I learned things all by myself. But everything changes when I step on a higher level. I met lot of friends in high school. That time, I became a believer of that high school life was the best. Until years passed by. High school was not forever. It is a four-year contract only unless you decide not to finish that contract. All of the happy moments were lost. They were just another memory now. We must accept that. There are memories that will remain as memories forever.

Then, college! I think, college gave me a hybrid experience of being with friends and being alone. Well, there are times that I worked with a group but still, most of the times, I work alone.

Another scenario when a person came into my life. That day, I said to myself, I will never be alone anymore. Then as years passed by again, and until now, I am not alone. But why do I have this kind of feelings that even there are people beside me, I really feel that I am still alone. I am the only one against all of them. It's me against the world! I really hate this feeling. I remember of what a friend told me, "People come and go." And that's it. They come to make you smile and feel better but they will leave you soon worse than before you met them. I am not saying that everyone who came to me, left me. But there are some who I wanted to stay with me longer but they just don't want to be with me even a minute more.

Well, that is what life is. No man is an island. But we must learn to walk alone in the night.
