It’s very scary to feel alone.
When the kids were very young I used to have anxiety attacks that would literally leave me shaking and crying in the corner if I was the only adult around after they went to bed
I was so afraid of not being able to handle things if they went wrong and I imagined all sorts of worst case scenarios. I was scared of fire, scared of storms, scared of intruders, and so afraid of being alone and not knowing what to do.
Looking back I think the biggest cause was being disconnected.
When you start to know and feel the power of connection in your life, you never feel alone again.
You are connected to your higher self, and to the universe. Instead of feeling like you don’t know how to handle things, you begin to realize you actually don’t need to handle the things.
Being connected gives you the answers when you need them, the strength when you feel weak, and the comfort of knowing that you don’t have to rely on your own inexperience or humanity to make it through anything.
You can always surrender and ask for help. And it always appears in one form or another.
Somehow everything always turns out ok.
Connection is one of our needs. You can find it by tuning in to your higher power, being in nature and by listening to the signs the universe is constantly showing you.
You are never alone, even when you are all by yourself.
