"Sadly you are beginning to doubt everything you've always been so sure of"

I hate it when people say that every man is born alone. I hate it, because it is not true, really. I mean, think of it as a technical matter. Every child is physically connected to their birthgiving mother through their umbilical cord. A child is never born alone.

What I believe however, is that life is about learning a lesson. Life is about learning to deal with loneliness. You might not be born alone, but you will as of your birth, always be alone. You can not trust anyone but yourself, no matter if they think they love you or not, no matter if you think you love them or not. Every man for himself, whoever it is and whatever post they might have in your life, they will always search for their own happiness. They will always protect themselves from harm and hurt.

Do not be mortalized by this knowledge. Be satisfied. Be satisfied with the fact that at least, you haven't always been alone. You have had somebody, who you ultimatelly "will always have" just not in the same way. You have somehow been replaced, but in the process, you have created memories in the company of this person, memories who will make you stronger in the battles against the pains in life. Be upset, allow yourself to cry when your childhood dreams and plans don't go their way. Be wounded, allow yourself to heal when it really hits you. But after you're done with that, be glad. Be glad, for what you have had.

Loneliness is like cancer. You can not prevent it, nor cure it, you can not stop it, but you can assuage its' symptoms.
