essay on the alone in the crowd
Answers
“We are born alone, we live alone, and we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.” This quote was addressed by Orson Welles, an American motion-picture actor, director, producer and writer. Perhaps, Welles is favorable to being alone. When I first read his quote, I was filled with awe that I can’t forget what he said. His words keep running in my head. Welles is right. We will live a life alone.
Being alone doesn’t mean we don’t want to socialize with others. There are many reasons why we want to be alone. Just like me, I prefer to be alone in a crowd. Sometimes, I want to be alone for the sole reason of meditating. Just like what Marilyn Monroe said, “I restore myself when I’m alone.” There are things I don’t want to open up with my friends, so I just keep it to myself and think of it. Ambitions, problems and duties are the things that run in my mind when I’m alone. I think of God when I’m doing nothing. Examining my conscience assists me in doing good deeds. Through this, I will be able to identify what needs to be done. Knowing myself better happens when I’m with no one else.
Another quote that moved my heart is “It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone - so far.” This famous quote of Marilyn Monroe reflects the people who want to isolate themselves with bad company. It is far better to be alone than to be in a bad company. These people want themselves to be associated with men of good quality and to be influenced with desirable traits. Just like me, I want to be influenced with these desirable traits when I’m still young.
