Back in the day when the common cold/flu was the major murderer of this planet, seems now, quite a joke to us. My colleague has been struck down with the flu, and being a man, he thinks that he's dying! Naturally....

We are embedded with these contemporary diseases that we are forced to live with, because as society changes, we ourselves have to adapt to certain restraints and needs in order to survive.

You choose to live a life of lonliness, because in your words and thoughts, you said, "I now understand that it is not fate that drives me to be alone; it is myself. It is my persoanlity; I can't stand restraints and committment!"

Of course, I agree; this is your choice.... but, I can't help but wonder, would this have been your choice if society or culture was different; for example, if we went back 70 years in time, would you still feel this way?

It is unfair to say that this is all your fault... Everyone goes through certain things in their life to shape who they are today... But, this desire to be alone.... is it really a disease, or is it an excuse?

I believe, like so many of us... we find excuses for things that we wish to escape. I have lost myself... where have you taken me?
