There is something liberating about living alone . You can eat what you want, decorate your home your way, and enjoy the luxury of doing absolutely nothing without answering to anyone. Yet, the same freedom can sometimes feel overwhelming when you are dealing with a difficult day, falling sick, or coming home to an empty house. Living alone is as much about discovering independence as it is about learning to deal with solitude.
There is the relationship you make with silence . But there are also evenings when you come home from a hard day and realize there is nobody to share it with casually. Sometimes it is not even a deep conversation that we crave. It’s the same old comfort of having someone else around.
It feels so good at first to have a whole space all to yourself, according to Damini. “You start to find out what you really like, what your natural rhythms are, how you want your home and your life to feel, without having to trade those choices with everyone around you every step of the way,” highlighted Damini.
