Leave Me Alone I'm Lonely

So I took a little field trip today. Maybe you've experienced this before. I took a field trip - by myself. Scary ain't it? The whole going in it alone. I had former plans but the house was bringing me down being alone. And why pass up an opportunity to go outside in Alberta on day where it's +25 celicus? So I went out. First with my dog so I wouldn't be totally alone. Warm breeze on my legs and I was trucking along. I went to the spot I would have gone to today. I sat there and soaked up some rains on my unusually pasty skin. Just sat. No book, magazine, mp3 or phone ( I wanted to ignore it). Just some random girl sitting on a hill laying on the grass with her white fuzzy dog rolling around in the grass. It felt nice. So nice in fact I ditched the dog at home and took a bike ride to the convenience store, and sat and read a Rolling Stone and ate a candy bar. People I knew walked in asking what I was doing and who I was there with. I said myself. All of a sudden I felt like I had to check like I hadn't grown a giant zit or something because the look was weird. And the AWW of that poor lonely girl who has no friends thing people do when they find out that you are alone. Oh no. I assure you I have friends. I didn't need the AWW coo.

When did making the choice to having me time become so wrong? It's like this foreign thing that people are terrified of. Because being alone equates to you having no friends, nothing better to do or you're sad. I personally think everyone should take what I like to call a 'Mental Health Day'. Be alone for a day! Okay, that may sounds drastic to some of you, so maybe a small dosage of a couple hours. Try it. Be alone, have a day where you don't have to worry about school, bills, family, work; anything.
Be kind, and have a You Day today
