Rules of love- Rule 6

Loneliness and solitude are two different things. When you are lonely, it is easy to delude yourself into believing that you are on the right path. Solitude is better for us, as it means being alone without feeling lonely. But eventually it is the best to find a person who will be your mirror. Remember only in another person’s heart can you truly see yourself and the presence of God within you.

  1. Perfect. Solitude is like that secret door, which could open up paths to a version of you that never existed. Self-discovery and self-realization. When I travel alone for work, there are days when I don’t talk to anyone, except for work. The utter silence helps me imagine and clear-up thoughts. Though there are times, when the hotel authorities thought, I am dead or something. They almost started calling the intercom, sounding very worried. 🙂
