My personal growth has been a long and constant journey since adolescence. I’ve had so many bad habits. I made so many mistakes. My moments of reflection and change will never truly end. That’s what life is about. I believe I am a much better person than I was a year ago, or thirty years ago. At this stage of my life, if there is something I would change, it is my perception of solitude.

I always believed that being alone was an acceptable way to live. If we are destined to end up alone, why not embrace solitude from an early age? Now I see that I was mistaken. Solitude is not a choice but a consequence that life sometimes inevitably leads us to. There are moments when we must reset our lives and spend some time alone. Still, we must make sure that time is not prolonged. Solitude is addictive.

I now think it will always be better to share life with someone else. Despite our flaws and imperfections, we must fight together. We need to overcome our demons and forge a common destiny as a couple. Fight and never give up.
