I have come to an understanding with myself. And it’s taken decades to get here.

I felt lonely for many years in adulthood and probably did predictable things to assuage that — getting married, having kids.

But in hindsight I lived with the mindset of how my life ‘should be’ as opposed to what I really enjoyed. Today I sit with myself a lot — admittedly I have all these @modern gadgets surrounding me, but I never feel lonely. And not because I’m on social media a lot.

It’s because I’ve accepted that I actually really enjoy being with myself, reading a lot of the time, and just not being interrupted in my life by others.

Anti-social? Maybe. Makes me happy? —Yes!
