Le Moi Errant: Solitude


Even before leaving it was something that aroused the attention of everyone. Maybe the thing people fear the most. But it is something remarkable. As it is in life. We often try to escape this feeling. But, like any other, it is important.

We do not make the moments. One time, you can be with many people, and another, be all alone in the midst of a strange city. It is the ease with which you share these moments with yourself that determines the experience. And what's scary is also an excellent opportunity to be with you. Something we tend to devalue.

There were few times I felt lonely. Now, in the 21st century, it is much easier to communicate. In addition, rare are the times that you are alone. You open yourself to the world and you make friendships, conversations or share spontaneous moments.

The most difficult was the Christmas. It is the moment in which "home" makes more sense. It was a remarkable experience. But Christmas is just a day. And the important thing is not the day itself, but the opportunities that are given you throughout life. I think this is the role of a lonely journey. If you pass the superficial discomfort, you end up enjoying much more everything around you.
