There is an immense amount of courage that it takes to be truly and honestly alone-emotionally untethered and unbound to someone. There is a certain amount of devotion to your own heart and faith in your own love that develops. To be able to sit, to be in the stillness, in the fire of your own being, to not run from it and hide in another; "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us" (-Marianne WIlliamson), and trust that you are okay; that you could be alone the rest of your life and be okay, and still love. This a gift that we all deserve to give ourselves. For we all enter the world essentially alone and pass into the next, alone. So let this time be a practice; A practice of none-attachment and a practice of really and truly getting to know that power, strength and beauty that resides so deep within you, and to sit in the discomfort of that until you can trust it from the deepest part of your soul.
