Solitude

Blessed are those that do not shy away from solitude,

The brave souls who understood the ways of life,

We are born in this world assisted,

But we will go back to the earth unaided


What better way is there then to be?

What better way to understand life?

To understand your true self?

But to embrace the beauty of solitude.


Though solitude means wonders,

One must not forget others as companions

As humans live in a machine-like society

An individual can trigger  another's actions


In the end,

Humans are born with innate compassion

The ability to provide love and comfort to one another


Lest we forget that we have the duty to care

Woe is to the ones that keep to their selfish selves



Inspired by two passages in Paulo Coelho's book, The Alchemist:

"When we love, we strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too"

"No matter what he does, every person on earth plays a central role in the history of the world. And normally, he doesn't know it"
