Since we were little we have been taught to respect others, not to trample on the feelings of our acquaintances and relatives. That we have to take care of our words and actions, because we don't know who we can hurt with them.

But no one teaches us how to love and take care of ourselves. Perhaps because in this way we depend on the acceptance of others, and in this way we do not separate ourselves from the family that has given us life.

The problem is when you are faced with loneliness. You realize who you carry within you. And you don't always like that person you see.

You have to deal with emotions and feelings that are crowding into your head. Doubts, confrontations and crying.

And you end up doing what you would do with anyone to understand it. Sit and talk. Understand what motivates you each morning, what you dislike about yourself.

Learn to respect and accept yourself as you are, and how you can improve. Teach you to love yourself.

That is why it is important to feel loneliness, no matter how much we have been taught to fear it. Because if we don't do that process, we will never really know each other.

And because living a lifetime with a stranger, I don't think it's the healthiest thing for anyone, right?

You don't have to force anything, or like yourself, just understand yourself.

When you get it, you will see that for other people it is the same. You will not have to force anything, it will only be what it has to be.

So, take advantage of this moment and sit down with yourself! Have a hot drink. Put on the music you like. Talk, laugh and cry if you need to!

Think of yourself.

Desde pequeños nos han enseñado a respetar a otros, a no pisotear los sentimientos de nuestros conocidos y familiares. Que tenemos que cuidar nuestras palabras y acciones, porque no sabemos a quién podemos herir con ellas.

Pero nadie nos enseña cómo querernos y cuidarnos a nosotros mismos. Tal vez porque así dependemos de la aceptación de otros, y así no nos separamos de la familia que nos ha dado la vida.

El problema es cuando te enfrentas a la soledad. Te das cuenta de quién llevas dentro de ti. Y no siempre te cae bien esa persona que ves.

Tienes que lidiar con emociones y sentimientos que se te agolpan en tu cabeza. Dudas, enfrentamientos y llanto.

Y terminas haciendo lo que harías con cualquier persona para entenderla. Sentarte y hablar. Entender qué es lo que te motiva cada mañana, lo que te disgusta de ti mismo.

Aprender a respetarte y aceptarte cómo eres, y cómo puedes mejorar. Enseñarte a quererte.

Por eso es importante el sentir la soledad, por mucho que nos hayan enseñado a temerla. Porque si no hacemos ese proceso, nunca nos conoceremos realmente.

Y porque vivir toda la vida con un extraño, no creo que sea lo más saludable para nadie, ¿verdad?

No tienes que forzar nada, ni caerte bien, sólo entenderte.

Cuando lo consigas, verás que para el resto de personas es lo mismo. No tendrás que forzar nada, sólo será lo que tenga que ser.

Así que, aprovecha este momento y ¡siéntate contigo mismo! Tómate una bebida caliente. Ponte la música que te guste. ¡Habla, ríe y llora si lo necesitas!

Piensa en ti.
