I Isolated Myself for 24 Hours & Here Is What Happened to Me
One of the greatest fears of my life is to have no one around me because I am afraid of ghosts!
Jokes apart! I really don’t want to live a loner life nor do I want to have hundreds of people around me just to hang out with every other day. I just want to be with 3-4 people I can call ‘mine’ and have meaningful conversations with them over a cup of tea. That’s how simple I want my relationships to be.
But wait! What about my relationship with myself? What am I doing to connect with myself and to know myself better? Well, pretty much NOTHING. (These questions are for you to ponder on as well)
So, a day before I isolated myself for 24 hours with:
a) No means to contact the outside world
b) No mobile phone or any means of entertainment
How did I do it?
My family just bought a new home and we have not shifted there yet. So, I went to our new house to spend a day with myself to experience what feels like to be with myself. Now, although, I have spent almost a year alone when I was doing my job but deliberating choosing to listen to my heart while maintaining distance from everyone and everything is something that I did for the very first time.
