Solitude :
Sometimes it is really hard to deal with people,
- People who don’t want to listen you.
- People who don’t value you .
- People who take you for granted .
Then the best solution for you is stay away from them .
You know why?
"Being alone is better than being ignored."
“Being alone is better than losing your self respect.”
"It is better to be a lonely loin, than a popular sheep".
"Loneliness is an essential friend on the road to bravery" .
~Ibn Arabi
Don’t get disheartened
"Sometimes life is too hard to be alone , and sometimes it is too good to be
alone."
"Don’t let getting lonely make you reconnect with toxic people,
You shouldn’t drink poison just because you are thirsty."
And you know what?
"No matter how many friends you have in the end of the day, you will be alone
with your problems and pain."
There is a little difference between loneliness and solitude.
Loneliness :
When you feel lonely when you are alone then you are actually emotionally
weak.
“ If you are lonely when you are alone, you are in bad
company.”
In Jung's views :
"Loneliness doesn't come from having no people around, but from unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself , or from holding certain views which others find inadmisable."
~carl Jung
Your loneliness is not loneliness, it is your personal space.
Don't let your mind misguide you.
The beauty behind loneliness is that you find out that You don't need anyone but Allah.. (God)
Solitude :
And solitude is the state of emotional wellness.
- In which you feel you are enough.
- You feel ok either someone wants to spend time with you or not .
Although we are social creatures, still begging time from someone is not advisable from me .
“Some journeys in life can only be traveled alone.”
~Ken Poirot

“Loneliness is the poverty of self, solitude is the richness of self.”

Solitude is addictive:
“Solitude is dangerous. Its addictive once you see how peaceful it is ,
you don’t want to deal people.”
