I live alone. My husband died several years ago. At first it was hard to be alone, but now i enjoy it.

You have to learn how to LIKE yourself. If you don't like yourself, you'll never learn how to NOT be lonely. You need to feel comfortable in your own skin ~ if you learn to care for yourself and truly LOVE yourself, then being alone won't feel so bad. There's a difference between being alone and being lonely.

Generally, I'm not lonely ~ I can almost always find something to occupy my time/mind. There are other times I just sit and meditate. It took me a long time to learn to LIKE myself. I had to forgive myself for past mistakes, and past misdeeds. Once I was able to do that, I found that I wasn't such a bad person afterall.

Being alone doesn't mean that you have to be lonely. God bless. Hugs, Lee
