Sometimes as humans being the great, wonderful, and reckless people we are we mess up. Some people mess up more than others, I am one of those people. I found myself alone, and friendless at one point and often times I still feel that way. Yet, I would not change this because it has taught me lessons that I would have other wise never known.

1. Sometimes you just a need a break.

When you are a social butterfly like me sometimes you can become overwhelmed. Always trying to please other makes you feel like you are disappointing yourself. Outside of your ambition to help others, you have no functionality and goals set.

2. You learn more about being a good friend when you do not have any.

I learned the most about friendship and how it should impact you when I was alone. I learned that I want someone who is childlike, open to new things, and always has a joke that can cheer me up. I learned I do not want to befriend someone who is negative, stubborn, or ill tempered.

3. You will alway think you are "in your feelings" and that is okay.

You need to process emotions, and that is one thing I am really good at now. I used to struggle with putting my words into feelings but now it appears that this happens almost effortlessly.

4. You need to love yourself.

If you love yourself just know you will never be alone. Learning to love myself is arguably the best thing that I ever learned to do. I used to spend so much time looking for the good in others that I never looked for it in myself.

I suggest that everyone has a time in their life when they are alone, it will help you grow and reassure you of who you are as an individual.
