It's Okay To Be Alone

Sometimes I just need to be alone. And that's okay.

Other times I need to be around people. And that's okay.

We need a healthy dose of each. If we spend too much time alone, we forget how to interact and communicate with others. If we spend too much time with people, we become disconnected from ourselves.

It's not one or the other. It's one and the other. We are social creatures but we must not forget who we are.

Last night I did not want to talk to anybody. I just had to work through my own stuff. I needed to feel whatever I was working through. I needed to be, not do.

Tonight, I'm ready to socialize. I'm looking forward to meeting new people. I excited about the conversations ahead. I'm curious what the new connections will bring.
