The beauty of being alone is you are so sure no one is gonna hurt you. Yes, it’s a bit lonely or sad sometimes, but it’s better than living in the same space with someone who keeps making your life a nightmare. I always remind myself about this – better be alone than ending up with someone hurtful. I feel so safe when I sleep alone. During the day, I can turn up the heating without anyone complaining or opening the windows to let icy cold air in. I can put cook and eat whatever I like. I can even eat ice cream for lunch. The home is a safe haven. When I reach home, the relief is so great. Because I know I don’t need to act according to people’s expectations. I am free from unnecessary judgement. Sometimes I feel sad, but I don’t need to pretend I am happy. And it’s only me who knows I am sad. I create and live in my own little world. My home is a small house but to me it’s a precious castle. I am thankful for being able to have some personal space. Life is so draining. And people are too judgemental. So whenever I reach home, I feel so relieved. Because I’m sure no one is there to give me a hard time. And I can breathe in the cool crisp air of my garden without worrying about others. My power shower is my water therapy. I can dress my bed up with frilly pillow cases and duvet cover and no one would complain. I can wear thick clothes like I’m an Eskimo and no one would laugh at me. Being alone has its down side but generally I like the relief and freedom.
