Solitude
In her essay “all alone—and loving it” jane Ganahl talks about how being lonely was something different from all the things she was used to doing on her birthdays. By offering herself solitude she went on vacation all alone. Because usually people are lonely when they are depressed, or are experiencing emotional pain, they find it weird that she was traveling all alone.

Most of the time people lose their own path to life by trying to impress or being loved by everybody. Well, by doing many things in order to fit in the society as a normal person, people get lost in the understanding of their inner. Based on my personal experiences, being lonely has helped me define who I am which appeared to be different from who I was trying to be. For example, before I started living alone I was used to doing thing that other people liked because I thought that was the way I was supposed to be. However, I learned to do what I personally like such as staying home all-day doing nothing instead of spending time with people that I was not even sure if they truly liked me. Therefore, I started making better decisions in my life because I had a better understanding of myself. I also started to see what was good or bad for me without anyone’s influence. It made me realize that it is better to be alone than being surrounded by many fake people. Therefore, I believe Solitude is the way to understand yourself without being worried about the outside
