Scared of Lonely

What is your biggest fear?

How do you scale such a thing? Most people would say death, seeing as though it is the epitome of finality, anything short of that is reversible (barring certain travesties but that's another topic). he reason I ask this today, is because I have heard many people tell me that their biggest fear is being alone. It has made me pause every time I have heard it. I love great company and value the dependability in others, regardless of what element it is in; but I question, was I not born alone?

I don't remember anyone being connected to my hip when I came into this world, so should I not be trained to have only two people to answer to - myself and the most high. I struggle with this, and by no means have I negated the importance of my child (whom I must consider in every decision that I make), but I know for a fact the most vulnerable moments I have met in life is when I have found myself "afraid to be alone." So what is to be made of this?


In this present moment I must deal with facts, and fact is when I am not afraid of being by myself, I feel empowered, independent, capable, and most importantly comfortable with myself.

What are you afraid of? Comment.

  1. My biggest fear is standing alone for something that I believe in. But if it's the right thing then I don't mind. I don't fear being alone, but standing alone fills you with agony. If I can't get people to be on my side then I feel like I have failed. So in a sense I fear failure as well.

  2. No worries Reg..remember some of the greatest triumphs have come from people who had to stand alone and keep moving despite their fear. As long as u always keep trying, u don't have to worry about failing. No one is perfect.

  4. That's real Anonymous. Keep in mind love always starts with yourself and a higher power first. You depend on a human too much, you may be disappointed...it's crazy love always comes when you least expect it.
