There are lot of controversies on the question whether or not living alone has a bigger advantage over living with someone else. For all we know both have their positive and negative sides. The important thing there is what you take advantage of and what you learned in the end.
Neither one of these two will last forever, be sure of that. This is why sooner or later you’re going to feel them both. Examining and comparing them is really unnecessary because they both are something to gain and to lose from. More interesting to people is what happens when karma has its say and people are forced to live alone somehow. Meanwhile, you don’t care about any of that and you have your own life to live in.
If living in a big city, if you want education, if you want a woman or a man who cares about you not because of material interests but for who you are, the city will change you completely and you will have no say over this. In the beginning it always starts the same way. A person arrives along with the house removals London, with a small or a large amount of possessions and a rich history behind his back. His not in the mood it will take him or her weeks, even months to get used to something as depressing as a city. On the other hand there are things to gain from a situation like this.
One good comparison is story of the Spartans and how they choose their king. A boy is send to the wild to battle with mother nature and her fury. It has to learn how to use the elements in its favour and work in synchrony with nature or die. If it returns home, already a man, that man has the right to be a king. If it doesn’t return at all the whole ritual is repeated.
Like they say, what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger. Only by saying that you can understand why that person, moving boxes from the man van London car was destined to succeed or be eliminated. Everyone can do this, they just have to have the proper motivation and something to hold on to, something to fight for. Living alone, you take full responsibility for yourself and learn from mistakes made. This is how it works and how it should work.
Call us crazy for not having something else to talk about, this form of living is the best way for a person to learn things that are otherwise impossible to apprend. Life has a way of teaching us lessons that put us back in the right way. We can not complain about it, we can only listen to what it has to say and always push the limit.
