I caught an episode in a recent local talk show about men living alone. Naturally, i was drawn to the discussion as i am, for over four years now, living all on my own. Except for the occasional trips to our family home on weekends, i spend my days... and nights... alone in my room in a condo i am renting in Makati.
Since my partner, Mai, passsed away, i have slowly adjusted to waking up and going to bed alone... but am i lonely? No, not anymore. Quietly, i have taken to accepting my present state-of-affairs and stopped battling with myself over thoughts of self-pity and longing.
We are never alone. Even when we think we are on our own, we never really are. God created the universe so perfectly that for one to think that he can be detached from everyone and everything is utter arrogance. You only have to look to the skies at night or feel the gentle breeze to really know that YOU ARE NEVER ALONE!
