“101 Simple Truths For A Better Life” Humble The Poet (21) “LONELY IS A FEELING, NOT A CIRCUMSTANCE”

 

“Sometimes it may have nothing to do with a lack of company, but rather a wall we put up ourselves.”  Why do we continue to put up this wall, especially if at the end of the day we don’t want to be lonely?  The fear of loneliness drives us to compromise who we are.  Our most important relationship is obviously with ourselves and we need to always remember that and keep it top of mind.  The more time we continue to get to know ourselves, “the better equipped we’ll be to determine our compatibility with others.”

I’ve felt lonely in a crowded room, perhaps due to my diagnosed anxiety.  I’ve also felt peace in secluded solitude.  One thing I’ve learned for sure is to not let others determine this.  Be comfortable with you and your feelings at all times.  Regardless of what people say or think, always do “YOU”.

“Love when you’re ready, not when you’re lonely”

Wan’t to know something?  We...

“101 Simple Truths For A Better Life” Humble The Poet (40) “LESS EXPECTATIONS LESS DISAPPOINTMENTS”

  We all have expectations and I would be delusional to think that I didn’t.  Can you imagine a life without expectations?  I still have expectations of people, personally and professionally, and both still tend to let me down.  “Blame and power go hand in hand, so giving it away ,any not be the best choice”.   I, like you, have been deeply hurt by people in my past.  “Within that pain are jewels of wisdom that can put you in a position not the repeat the same foibles.  Our heart is very resilient, and it will survive even when someone steps all over it”.  If you’re anything like me, you know first hand that we can be overly dramatic, and we’re harming no one else but ourselves.  Learn from those mistakes so they don’t hopefully happen again, and again.  “Pay attention to actions over words, they’ll always be more revealing”.  No can shield you from the pain life brings, it’s actually essential to our well being.  We humans lea...
