Prompt: Going it alone

Is “going it alone” really all that bad? Sometimes I need some alone time to think, reflect on my experiences. People who can never be alone can’t think for themselves. They base their self-worth on what others think of them. Being a people-person isn’t negative, but you need to be alone sometimes. Being an introvert is underrated. Sometimes I feel that society thinks shy people have some sort of mental illness. We just look inward, rather than outward. We are more reflective, instead of active. Being alone doesn’t equal being lonely. If you can’t love yourself, how can you love someone else?
