I think life is really quite simple

Life is awful when desperate.

I just have to accept that detachment is correct.

It is a way of life where you are okay to be alone if it comes to that.

Being alone is not the ideal but it is the ideal if no one wants to talk to you.

That is the basics of detachment.;

Appreciating the simple pleasures of life like animals and shop assistant or the books, a bus ride, food, a job,

It is a default state of living. Being alone.

But that does not mean i have no friends necessarily

But seeing all that as bonus things which i dont really need if friends dont want to be my friends

If constantly worry about loosing friends, what is the point of friends?

Got to be happy to be alone first and foremost, in my experience.

Family is there to help me reach detachment

But once i reach detachment, even family are part of detachment.

It does not mean i want my family to abandon me.

It just means that if they do abandon me, i will be okay.

I think that being alone is fine. And I even enjoy it. But love is the greatest of gifts so don’t look away from others or you might miss out.

Yeh that is hitting the nail on the head. Very true.

Sometimes its hard to be alone cos one may rely on ppl for all sorts.

But the goal is to reach independance if possible. For true freedom
