lonely

It was just past noon, 12:03 p.m. to be exact, that time of the day when shadows hide beneath one’s feet and everything appears stark, distinguished only by color, lacking depth.

Lately, it seems like all my conversations with my friends are about the future and what they’re doing, which inevitably reminds me of what I’m not doing.

Spending time alone is an important task that we should all be cultivating. This list will help you spend time with your own company without feeling lonely. 

For all my life, I’ve always lived with somebody. This month marks the first time I’m living alone, and it's thus far been an eye-opening process.

I’ve been on campus for almost two months now, and I’ve created relationships with people that fulfill me in ways that my friends I had for years never did.

So, hit the recharge button – in this case, the play button – and listen to some good vibes while you take some time to tune out the world.
