How to be happy alone. Sounds like a daunting task I can hear you now: "Loneliness can be hell. Finding happiness alone? I need someone or something in my life to make me happy --- a lover, a partner, a spouse, or friends. And, if I have enough money I can buy any and all of these, and that would make me happy, too."Understand the deal. No one is going to do it for you . . . on a long-term, forever basis. No fabulous loving person is going to rescue you from your loneliness permanently. They cannot. Oh, someone can undoubtedly give you moments of joy, companionship, sweetness, pleasure, validation, love, and happiness. Even a temporary sense of completeness. Until they don't. Then you realize---again---your greatest emotional pain usually comes from the person or persons you thought could make you happy. Ouch We have all heard the old phrase "Happiness comes from within." It's true, whether you accept right now or not. It's always best for your happiness to operate in reality. Start right now. Here's the plan to find lasting happiness alone. Yes, all by yourself.
