That you are alone
That you must figure out what to do to the best of your ability
That people may not/will not like you
That you may be shunned
That you may lose people you love
That you are alone at the end of the day, most especially this.
That IF you have people in your life, you cannot sell yourself for them.
They have to allow you to have yourself.
You hope they can do that.
You may want to be loved with all your heart but the person must allow you to love yourself first and honor yourself, too.

You aren't alone. Please don't ever think that.

In my house, I had to give myself up.
I did not want to know what would have happened if I didn't.
I had monstrous stories locked in my head. I was warned not to be "uppity"
That was my sacrifice in order to live
I manicured the outside like a lawn that was perfect so no one would know that under it was weeds or quick sand that took you down if you stepped on it.

I thought you could live if your shell only looked pretty enough but there is some economy somewhere where you die instead.

We are all alone.
We are all born alone.
We all die alone.
The space in between is called life and we are alone yet we strive for togetherness.
In this struggle we learn that it's ok to be alone and in 'loving' aloneness we find togetherness with ourself.
This is called love. It is the most positive and important discovery man can make in his lifetime.

It's healthy to be alone. It's unhealthy to think you are not alone. Ironic but true. Nothing sad about it. Alone doesn't equal lonely!

Arguments don't have to lead to someone being alone.

I've dealt with my very own sociopath - now he might die alone.
