The Author's Corner: Walk Alone

Do we truly know where we are going in life? Does the path that you are following make you walk alone? Are we all alone even when we are around others?

We all walk alone in our life even when we are around many people. The reason is because everyone has their own personal path that they are following. People come into our life for a reason, maybe their path lines up with ours for a few years and then they are gone. For the average person, the thought of being alone is that of horror.

The fact is we came into this physical world alone and that is how we leave it. Sometimes there are people who stay in our lives like our family and some of our friends. The path we walk always will turn us around at time and these people are going to be there for us.

Once old age happens and members of our family and friends pass on, most people feel more alone. This happens to most people because their family and friends were a big part of their lives and their passing leave a void that can not be filled.

Do we stand and walk our true path in life? I think we do and what is unseen to us is that path. Some never take the time to be in the presents of just themselves. They are scared of being alone as it does not matter who you are because we have all been there. It is like standing in an open field even when we are in a community of thousands of people.

Time itself plays an important role in walking alone because at one moment it stands still and the next moment it has been hours that has passed us by. Time is one of those things that will define us when we follow our path. The reason for that is when we walk alone we are on our time. Everyone’s time moves at different speeds even thought we are all in this physical world together.

At the end of it all, being comfortable in our time alone is hard for most people. The ones who enjoy it are stronger because they do not rely on others for companionship. They are also the ones who do great things for society in a positive way.

Stay safe.
