Go it alone
If a man find no prudent companion who walks with him, is wise, and lives soberly, let him walk alone, like a king who has left his conquered country behind, like an elephant in the forest.
It is better to live alone, there is no companionship with a fool; let a man walk alone, let him commit no sin, with few wishes, like an elephant in the forest.
- Buddha
It might be hard for seekers to find companionship. I know it first hand. I longed for a good sangha - a community of like-minded individuals. It seems that exploring reality, limits of knowledge, getting answers to hard questions, and examining your mind are not so popular these days.
But we can turn it around. For if you really want to know yourself, you must find time to be alone anyway. And knowing yourself is the root of all wisdom. There is a power in aloneness.
So, vibe alone, meditate, raise your awareness, heal yourself, build yourself, find your purpose, become unfuckwithable, and tell nobody.
Learn to live with yourself. Learn to love yourself. Be in tune with yourself. Fall in love with your life. Become the greatest you can ever be. Find your happiness. You'll never regret it. Being fine with being alone in silence is a superpower. Solitude is where you go to recharge, regain, and replan. Time spent purposefully alone is never wasted.
Make your garden a thing of beauty. You don’t need to explain yourself.
You can easily be happy if you just love your presence and enjoy your company. People may call it loneliness, but it is in fact freedom. Falling in love with yourself is more important than anything else.
And in time, your world outside will manifest the love you cultivate within.
If you can be happy by yourself for 30 minutes you are successful.
