How to Survive Loneliness
Geez. It feels like a century when I stopped from blogging. It’s just that I have many issues that I coped with so I thought that I better deal with ‘em first before starting to get into my happy blogging world.
Some of my issues are not hard to deal with, especially when it’s a loved-one we are talking about. Well, my best friend and I had this fight. I wasn’t worried about our argument, for I knew that we would be able to fix it. However, it’s the loneliness that really got me. You see, my best friend and I are like sisters. We spend the time together and the both of us feel incomplete when one of us is absent. And since we had a fight, I had to go on a day without her. It really sucked.
However, being an optimist as I am, I know how to deal with while looking at the silver lining. So, I jot down some things in my journal to organized my disarrayed thoughts on how to deal with this loneliness.

Hang-out with my friends. Since my best friend is absent, I went out with my other friends for fun. We dined together, watched a movie, and talked about some things about or lives. It’s these times when you are comforted by them.
- Keeping a self-journal. Keeping a self-journal is, I guess the best therapy I’ve ever had. Even when there is no one to accompany me, I can still have a communication with myself through the process of writing. Besides, I’ll be able to know more about myself as I write down everything that I feel.

Think of wonderful memories. Despite the absence of my best friend, I can still feel her company while I reminisce our times together. With this, I can lessen my loneliness.
It easier to say those things than do it, for I was affected by our fight. But somehow, I manage to do that list and survive some days without her. But hey, the good thing here is our fight is over and we’re back to ordinary fun-loving women that we are.
