It was a beautiful day in Seattle today. Everything was in full bloom and the sun was out. On my walk home from my massage I saw a couple in the street fighting. They didn’t seemed hopped up on anything, just a normal domestic dispute. Yelling, name calling and arguing. Not sure about what, but unhappiness and anger were present.
It got me to thinking. Things I have wrote about previously; relationships and being single.
While I thought the loneliness was daunting, after seeing the couple arguing I weighed the options in my head, set them on the scales.
In relationships there is upheaval and fighting. It just happens. Disagreements and compromise. And sometimes that leads to what I saw on the street.
In being single and living alone, sure - the loneliness comes at night. But, only for a few hours. Just like a good dispute.
I realized then that I’d rather have my moments of solitude and some loneliness than the fighting. That my solitude wasn’t so bad. At this point in my life, I’d rather have the silence than the occasional fight and argument.
It gave me a perspective on things and that in my place right now, I’m much more content with being alone. As I have been off and on for many years. I have found that I am happiest alone.
The universe works in many ways and gives us signs and things to see to put our minds at ease and life into perspective.
With all I have to do ahead of me, I don’t have time for compromise or silly arguments.
Today made me grateful for my situation, and one I think that I will be happy in for years to come.
Neither one is bad, it’s just what works for the person, and now I have fully found mine.
Blessed Be
