I Am a Loner
Proud And Happy To Be A Loner... I used to feel bad for not being able to open up to strangers and attempting to befriend my classmates in the hopes of being invited to a party, to their house, or to an event. Some time that changed. I’m content with being by myself. There are many things I can do without friends such as reading a book, working out, writing, learning something new, going out by myself, dancing, singing, watching a movie. I accept that I’m independent and a self-leader. The need to belong has shifted from wanting to join others in social activities to knowing that my experiences, behavior, thoughts, beliefs, opinions, and values are somewhere in the world similar to other’s. My dissimilarities compared to society is my uniqueness. I’m proud of staying true to my individuality. I’m proud of being a loner. The solitude is calming. The silent union with a group of people is also desired and sometimes achieved. Social events or social activities is not unwanted. In fact, I embrace the company of others when given.
