Living alone

It's been 4 to 5 months that I have been living alone, with Mom visiting me every now n then and some arbit relatives coming over for a day or two. It's not that I have to do anything on my own. I have a cook, a helper bhaiya to take care of the house, and an Aayah who comes daily to do the cleaning. All in all I am living like a Princess. (I am a very spoilt kid, I know.)

Well, there can be another side to it to, one can think of it as a Princess kept in a tower. All by herself. Waiting for her prince charming to rescue her :P. But alas, I wouldn't let the Prince Charming to enter my house.

Anyways, there are some things I simply love about living alone:

1) I can keep my room as dirty as possible n there will be no one to bother me to clean up all the mess. The best part is that when I come back home in the evening everything would be in its place thanks to my Helper Bhaiya.

2) I can wake up and sleep at any time. At times I have the most atrocious sleep timings. I will sleep at 5p.m and wake up at 1 a.m. or I'll wake up 3 a.m. watch TV till 5 a.m then sleep again. Tell me would you have such freedom if you were sharing a room with someone?

3) I can do whatever I want to do. For e.g.-I can talk on the phone as much as I want- all day n all night.

4) It gives you time to pursue your interests. I have started painting n sketching more often now.

5) It teaches you how to enjoy by yourself. It teaches you how you can make yourself happy.

6) Recently(from today, to be more precise), I have started singing loudly, almost shouting (he he). Lets see next tym I meet one of my friends, if I can entertain them or not.

7) Every weekend I go to a new place, meet up with different people. N the best part is nobody asks me where r u going, with whom r u going, wen will u come come back, etc etc. (maybe because my parents trust me enuf n moreover I do tell them where I am going, so that they are not too worried. See I am a good kid.)

Points to remember (if you ever plan to stay the way I do):

1)Make sure that the cook is good. A bad meal means a bad day.

2) Make sure u have a lot of interests, only then ca u keep urself busy.

3) U should basically be a loner.

4) U should have at least one good friend with whom you can talk whenever u want to (2 a.m or 5 a.m he/she should be available).

5) Try staying like this only if you r not scared of the dark n you don't believe in ghosts and spirits.

  4. U missed the Most Important point about staying alone.. Its just the foundation for sense of Own Self... it promotes imagination/creativity and you have never-ending oppurtunity to meet and explore Yourself!
    In osho's words -
    " The capacity of being alone is the capacity of being loved"
