Friendship

I never felt the need of having friends, I always thought I never needed anyone in my life, I always felt I am better on my own, I always thought no one was worthy of my company..
How wrong I was.

Back then when I was younger, those days in high school, while others were making friends and associating, I was on my own, either reading or writing or doing something that never involved anyone else. Indeed I was the exact definition of ME MYSELF AND I.

I continued this my lifestyle for as long as I was in high school and to me it felt good. First year passed, it was enjoyable. Second year passed, I still enjoyed myself. Third year came, I still enjoyed my own company. Then third year passed and I had to transfer into another school. This was where the difficulty came in

At first I was glad I was going to meet new faces, but immediately I got in, I realized I was alone. I had no one to call to tell of my new school experience. Even though I still continued my lonely lifestyle, I realized slowly that I wasn't enjoying it anymore. Then funny enough I decided to make a friend. But because I never saw the need to have one, it turned out that I didn't know how to talk to people.

For one reason or the other they either walk away from me or at worse they laughed whenever I spoked. It took me a while to understand that no man is an island. You can't make it on your own. We all need someone in our lives at one point or the other.

It will become terrible difficult for one to associate with another if one decides to live one's life alone without anyone. So go out there, meet people, attend functions, associate with positive people and make friends cos let's face it. You have no life if you have no friends.

Happy new month people
