"It's bad enough to be an only child, but it's worse to have a companion, your only REAL companion, taken away from you in your growing years." -Shrutikona Das"If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you're not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone." -www.despair.com
"Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty." -Mother Teresa
"People who lead a lonely existence always have something on their minds that they are eager to talk about." -Anton Chekhov
Reflect on loneliness.
Loneliness and being left out is the worst. I was an only child, and my parents divorced when I was five, so I was kind of lonely. My mom did all she could to keep me occupied. I have friends and everything, but sometimes you could feel lonely inside.
ReplyDeleteSometimes you could be lonely even if you had friends. If your friends aren't nice to you, or you just simply don't 'connect' with them, you could feel left-out and lonely. It's an icky feeling. Trust me.
The weird thing is, sometimes I like being alone, not alone internally but just alone. I like reading, or listening to music. Everything is peaceful and you could sort of go into your own world. I never had an imaginary friend when I was little. I didn't even sleep with a stuffed animal. Sorta weird for an only-child, but I come to like it.
If I had any siblings they'd probably bother me all the time. Now I can read quietly, (as you can see I'm obsessed with reading), but when I have siblings they'll want me to play with them. I guess I'll have to read in the nighttime when they're sleeping.
Well, overall, loneliness is a horrible thing if it's an internal problem. If you're lonely for a little while, physically, then it can be peaceful and stress-relieving, I believe.
For the second sentence I mean I AM an only child
