"It's far better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone."
Marilyn Monroe
When were we initially told that being alone was shameful? Can we recall an early time when someone was infusing us with joy about an opportunity to be alone? Alone time steadies the nerves, heals the wounds, and aligns our emotions. It is a quiet time to connect with our inner being as well as the Divine.
If we are feeling overwhelmed, explore inner worlds cleaning out clutter. Use silence to explore the heart's desire. While broadening perspectives, we can creatively stir new options to bring excitement back into existence. Looking outside of ourselves, we learn of other people's remedies which are not necessarily the best for ourselves.
When we choose to sit in silence, removing outside distractions, breathing calmly, our inner self becomes more present. Who are we anyway? How have our interests and values shifted? Are we surrounded by beings who meet our interests now or from the past? Be still and know Divine is within waiting to lead us into happiness.
