I HAVE ENDURED PAIN. I AM NOT BRAVE.

ARE YOU SO STRONG AS YOU MAKE YOURSELF TO BE?

Strong men wear masks to conceal their emotions, to greet the day.

They put on a brave facade, as always.

Emotional anguish and pain?

Who hasn’t been put through all these?

SOMETIMES the STRONGEST among us are the ones who SMILE through SILENT PAIN, CRY behind CLOSED DOORS and FIGHT BATTLES nobody knows about.

Are you a brave one?

I am afraid I am not.

Truly.

WHAT IS IT LIKE TO BE ALONE? Treasure the Ones around You.

Of course I did not write this. I distilled it from somewhere. It was another brilliant person who has extensive life experiences, who wrote to share. These are social issues that we all know – that nobody, in his right frame of mind, would want to be alone.

Loneliness can assail you like a bitter plum. It saps you, drains you and eventually eats your soul.

Here’s goes:

“It’s sad to be alone. You can have all the money in the world, but if you don’t have anyone to share it with, you have nothing. The need for human companionship is universal. Humans are creatures of community and need each other for companionship.”
