This girl looks as if she gained the confidence to go out and do something on her one. Based off the picture, she must be hiking which is a tremendous way to understand yourself on a deeper level.]]> 2019-12-01 17:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418168820 csroto3432 https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418184892 Loneliness should be viewed as a way to strengthen your self-confidence and become less reliant on others.]]> 2019-12-01 18:41:14 UTC https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418184892 csroto3432 https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418185374 -Lane Moore discusses how when she was traveling alone one time, she got many shocked looks as to her being alone. 
-Sometimes, we have to do things by ourselves because we then see what we want and not what others want for us.
-Moore also touches on how "people leave." We are not guaranteed to always have people by our side, so it is incredibly important to not be dependent on others as a source of happiness in one's life.
-One thing she said touched me on a deeper level: "Being alone is a powerful fear, but it is also powerful." Being alone evokes power within oneself by showing that they can conquer the world,even if they are alone]]> 2019-12-01 18:43:31 UTC https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418185374 csroto3432 https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418187015 -Katy Bellotte touches on loneliness and how it is okay be lonely sometimes.
-She mentions how at college she was always with her sorority sisters; however, she would get super frustrated and would need to be alone at times. In today's society, there is an underlying stigma that being alone is always bad for you; however, sometimes you just need to get away sometimes. Just take some time to ground your thoughts and truly understand who you are. When you do this, you increase your self-confidence within yourself. You realize the things that you value within yourself and in life.
-One of the biggest points she touched on was how "we associate loneliness with shame" (Bellotte). Do not ever think that taking time for yourself is seen as a shameful act because it is the opposite. Loneliness should be viewed as a mandatory thing that everyone should partake in so that one can truly be comfortable with themselves. "The biggest cause of our loneliness is our inability to enjoy our own company"; furthermore, once you are comfortable with yourself, your self-confidence shoots up. ]]> 2019-12-01 18:51:43 UTC https://padlet.com/csroto3432/jcn5dc9lvf1/wish/418187015
