Even though I love people, I also love being by myself. I am not afraid of dying alone. After all, everyone dies alone. I am not worried about not being loved, as up until the moment I die, I will feel love every day. I am not worried about not finding love because I love so many people already, including myself. I am not worried about having no one to rely on because you all are there. I'm not afraid of taking care of myself because I know best what I need in life.
I don't need a husband, a wife or children to feel complete. I already am. I don't need anyone to make me a better person. I strive to do that every day, and I am always improving.
Sure, I don't love loneliness and I'm still not happy when I get hurt. But I don't fear it. I know that I get better and hurts don't last. I will never truly be alone because I have myself. I have friends. I have family. I have wonderful people all around me. I don't need that one "special person". You are all special to me.
I couldn't love anyone else, if I didn't love myself. I couldn't make anyone else happy, if I was always sad. If I couldn't take care of my self, how could I take care of anyone else?
I love people but they are limiting. You have to answer to them, explain yourself, make sacrifices. Right now, I am limitless and because of this, when I do choose to answer, explain and sacrifice for someone, it will be for the right reasons. And I will not resent them for asking things of me, because I will have already consented to what they are asking. Because I know myself, and my desires. I know my deal breakers, game changes, favorite foods and flaws.
I am so glad I have had a chance to really get to know myself. I am so excited what new things I will learn in the years to come. And while sometimes my resolve will flag, in the end I am so grateful for where I am. I'm happy being single, and I may never go back. Or I might, but that choice is my prerogative.
