Alone


Following last nights situation, I have discovered something. Doing things alone is incredibly noticed For the first time in my life, I sat at the cinemas by myself and watched a film by myself and was quite happy untill other people pointed out how alone I was. Was I alone? thoughts started coming into my head, I suppose I was alone but why was this strange? I need not talk to someone during a film, infact I started to become so aware of the groups of friends and lovers around me I moved to the corner, to bask in my alone-ness and sit content without the rest of the world reminding me just how alone I was.

After the film had finished I started to think of how strange people think it is to do things alone, to live life alone , to go on holiday alone, to adopt a child alone. Things are usually in couples or in families or friends. It's true, I is a very lonely letter but is it happy alone?
