loneliness as a chance for recharge

some times we need some space for ourselves to recharge our souls and minds,we need to escape from people and work and everything, so living alone allows this. 

This what Laura Schoker proved in her blog "How living alone can be Good For You".

 A chance to recharge. In a society built around extroverts, who get their energy from being around other people, we’re just now beginning to recognize that some people, so-called introverts, build energy and strength in being alone. Susan Cain, author of the recent book “Quiet: The Power of Introverts,” explained in a Q&A withScientific American: “When you’re working in a group, it’s hard to know what you truly think. We’re such social animals that we instinctively mimic others’ opinions, often without realizing we’re doing it. And when we do disagree consciously, we pay a psychic price.”


People are often surprised when I tell them I identify as an introvert — I’m outgoing and enjoy being around people, but I also need time to myself at the end of the day to regroup. Living alone allows me to build my energy back up so that I can go and 
spend it with others.

3 benfits of going solo

1. No fighting over the remote, movie selection or anything else

You can watch what you want, when you want and if you want to change the channel on every ad break you can. You won’t be bothered by someone lounging on the couch watching sports all day (unless it’s you) or hogging the games console.
2. You can control your bills and spending
While you won’t have anyone paying half of the general bills (which is often the main reason we live with flat mates in the first place), you will be more in charge of how you spend your money. Electricity left on all day, ridiculously long showers and exorbitant grocery bills all come out of your pocket if you share expenses. Flat mates with expensive taste can cost you a considerable amount of money.
3. You control what is in your fridge
If you are trying to lose weight or simply trying to eat healthier, it helps to manage what goes into your fridge and pantry. Flat mates and junk food can be a dangerous combo for your waistline. Preparing meals for one can be a little daunting at first but it gets easier over time. If you love to cook, invite people over to share your passion for food.
finally it's so clear that it's so enjoyable to control every thing in your home without caring about anyone except you.

3 joyful things to do when you living alone

If you are living alone, you will discover that you have more time for the 
most joyful things to do:

1- Reading:
You will be able to read more books in a little time when you live alone.
Try to make your own library and design it by yourself, as you can get more information and it is a chance for you to increase the sense of self-study.

living alone and loving it

"Living alone gives us the freedom to nourish the things we love without the constraints of a partner's timetable or his or her conflicting desires"
We're intimate with anything to which we surrender our whole being.
In 1983, at age eighty-one, Barbara McClintock won the Nobel Prize for her research into the genes of corn.
In an interview she said, "As you look at these things they became part of you. And forget yourself."
Then she spokes of "the real affection" one gets for the pieces of the puzzle that "go together." It struck me that she was using the language of love.

In the moments McClintock surrendered herself to the jumping genes –became part of them- she felt there was nothing missing

Loneliness is an experience

  "Before you let that news keep you up in bed (alone) at night, consider this: I’vefound that with the right lifestyle and support network, living alone can be an incredibly positive experience." 


This what Laura Schocker said in her blog at http://www.huffingtonpost.com about How Living Alone Can Be Good For You.

It's all about the experience in everything, you'll have to deal with a lot of different situations that enable you to learn more about self depends, so loneliness will be an excited experience.

You learn how to cook and clean, how to care about needs of your home, how to wash your clothes, and how to make everything.

You will have a lot of skills that will facilitate your life.

 

Do you remember "Home Alone" movie?

Although "Kevin" was a child, he learned a lot of things during his loneliness when his family forgot him and travelled to Paris.

"Kevin" learned to wash his clothes, to buy his food, and also to defend his home.

So it's an experience that you should try to gain and deal with.

Think about yourself

If you have a dream, you must achieve it even if you will leave your family and start a new life that facilitate achieving this dream.
Actually, we talk in the previous post about "Joys of living alone" and we mentioned that one of these joys is to "Design your world".
In this post, I will mention another joy of living alone.
All of us have a crowded life that includes many events, work and people & sometimes we can't find some time for ourselves, for thinking in our feelings.
So try to exploit this period of being lonely to think with purely mind in yourself, think in your dreams, and define your objectives.
You have a quiet life now, try to discover your abilities and talents.
just answer on the question of "who are you & what your goals?"
