So, an exciting new semester has started for me. I am in my Senior year, going to graduate in May! Woohoo!
After 5 years (yes, 5) in college, I can not believe I have come this far. I have had some amazing experiences along the way, and it is just the beginning for me!
Yesterday, however, was one of those days...
What is it about starting a new year, with a new apartment, and new classes, that makes you feel even more alone?
I was feeling particularly lonely yesterday, as I was wandering around my campus trying to figure out why I was feeling this way. As the day went on, my slump became even worse to the point where I started to cry.
Why was I feeling this way, when I had more friends now than I ever have in my entire life?
The answer is simple. We ALL feel this way sometimes.
And it's OKAY!
The thing we should all understand about this is that all of us get lonely sometimes, and all of us know that we aren't actually alone.
We have our family, friends, significant other, roommates, pets, wild animals, nature, etc. around us that are there for us whenever we need them.
There truly is an abundance of good company in the world!
If you need the company of your Aunt, call her up! If you need to company of nature, go for a walk! Life is not about trying to constantly steer around our feelings, but to embrace them and go with the flow.
So next time you are feeling lonely (and this includes myself) understand that it is okay to feel this way, and let the feelings go with ease.
Have a beautiful day, Mcfly <3
