How to Be Alone

I've learned, sometimes, in the (very much ongoing) processing of learning to love myself, to exercise self-care, to really see myself as valueable, that though being alone is so often my preference based solely on personality, I am not always gentle with myself, and being alone is sometimes something that causes me to consider myself second-rate.

While I didn't totally agree with or love everything in this video I came across earlier this week, it did make me smile, and I thought I'd share.
