There is much to be said about fellowshipping/interacting with others. I say this because I noticed how I felt being with vs being without people around. For instance I played BINGO with a group of ladies last week and enjoyed it to the fullest. I then attended a Christian concert later in the week with my daughter and had similar enjoyable results. It was when I left the company of these wonderful people that I felt a sad-like/empty feeling. I pondered how I might retain the good vibes I felt when I was with others, even when they weren’t physically around. One solution I came up with was to invest in myself by treating myself to the movies, travel, dinner, etc. This has helped me to embrace being alone, without feeling lonely.
