At some point in our lives, we were
all lonely. It is our human nature to interact with others. There are days when
I felt so alone and left out in this world. Days I question if I’ll find the
One or not. I’m tired of being a lone wolf; I want a pack to join.
One day at work, one coworker
brought up the topic about loneliness. She stated that everyone feels alone
some time even if you are married. At first, I disagreed on her point, but then
I realized it was true after I asked another coworker of mine who was married. When
she was asked the question about feeling alone, she did not answer and had a
face that looked sad. She didn’t say anything, but I felt her message from her
body language. After that day, I’ve began to question myself about the
loneliness. Am I still going to be a lone wolf or should I find myself a pack
to join?
So far, I haven’t really heard
people admit they are lonely. Perhaps it’s the body armor making them look
strong. I can admit, I feel lonely. Life definitely looks better and fun when
you do things together with people. People can have fun together with people.
People can have fun together and go through obstacles together. If there is a problem,
you won’t face it alone, but together as a team and solve the problem. No
matter how bad a situation is, you’ll know that it is not just you who is
facing it.
I think I’ve been on the lonely path
for quite some time. It’s time for me to get off that path and find a new one
which is the path to happiness. In the pursuit to happiness, not being alone is
a factor in my goal. There are lots of tiny factors that build towards my final
destination of happiness. Even though one can never get rid of the loneliness,
I still believe that being less alone on this planet would be a better day than
before. At least I’m being less alone and alone bit by bit. Like a flower
sitting alone in a field of grass, I wait for another flower to appear. Even
though I have waited for years for a flower to grow within the field, I still
carry on some hope to continue my journey to happiness.
