Alone

Remember: the time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself. Life’s cruelest irony.
~ Douglas Coupland

In order to be open to creativity, one must have the capacity for constructive use of solitude. One must overcome the fear of being alone.
~ Rollo May

I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.
~ Henry David Thoreau

And you should not let yourself be confused in your solitude by the fact that there is something in you that wants to move out of it.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Consider this a time to learn something new about yourself.

Get out your art supplies.

Meditate.

Get lost in a novel.

Don’t allow wallowing.

Set new goals.

Contemplate those who are lonelier than you.

Reach out to others.

Volunteer for those in need.

Write a letter to an old friend.

Learn how to be your own friend and do something special for yourself.

Take a bubble bath.

Cook a healthy meal.

Get a massage.

Take a walk and notice nature.

Move:

Wake up your senses with plenty of exercise.

Remember, nothing lasts forever.
