Easier to Be Alone

Sometimes, there is the idea of being part of a couple.  A completeness that you can conceptualize.

But then, other times, there is the idea of what things would be like if you were left to the quiet by yourself. Some people haven't ever learned HOW to be alone, they are insecure, afraid of their own thoughts!

Sometimes it is just tedious to be around another person. (MElw, my mum) and although it is nice to imagine the connectedness of the Annual Gathering Family, sometimes it comes up empty.

(A work family seems more sane, if for no other treason than you can laugh at yourself and each other, and witness the moments of crisis, which seem to pass into nothingness every passing day)
