I’ve always been kind of bad at socializing. Not in a dramatic way. I just never really learned how people naturally make friends or stay connected with each other. Even social media feels foreign to me. I rarely have the desire to post, appear online, or remind people that I exist. So over time I got used to being alone. Nature, long walks, silence, random thoughts became my normal life. And most days I’m okay with it. But sometimes I wonder if I got too comfortable in isolation. I’m not getting younger, and I honestly don’t know if this is simply who I am now or if connection is something you can still learn later in life?
