There’s a difference between being alone when you’re with other people and being alone when you’re truly and purely alone. In one, there is a choice. You can chose to not be alone. You can chose to grow onto people. You can chose to love. But when you are purely alone, there is nothing. Evil thoughts are your only friends.
Imagine being alone, when you are always so dependent. Remember how you feel when someone walks away from you. Remember that heartbreaking moment when you realized they didn’t want you in their life. They obviously didn’t need you as much as you needed them. We all just keep forgetting to remember because we don’t want to think. We don’t want to remember that people can form evil thoughts in your own mind and that people can make promises and grow so close to you and then they can leave. They can get up and stab you in the back because you handed them the knife.
Without a second thought, you handed them the knife so you wouldn’t hurt yourself. There is not a doubt in your mind as you fill yourself with them. They look at you with loving eyes before they stab you in the heart.
But if you don’t give anyone your trust, there is no one who can hurt you. There is no one that you can be afraid to hurt.
Maybe it’s better to be alone.
