#ScribesAndMakers 2/9 Is one the loneliest number?
When I was a kid, I noticed that I became very uncomfortable in groups and crowds. It got to a point where I was intentionally isolating myself because I felt so much more at peace when I was by myself. I could dream and think by my self and not have to explain why I was so quiet all the time.
To this day, I'm still more comfortable alone than in social groups, but I also know it's important for me to stretch my comfort zone and form connections with good people.
So no, 1 wasn't the loneliest number for me. It was the safer, peaceful number.
