Burden of identity

Living alone, sometimes the company with yourself alone gets too hard to endure. Sometimes, all we need is an escape from ourselves. To get away from the person that is 'me'. Being all by yourself is not always a pleasure. There is a feeling, a deep feeling to escape the confines of this person. To be free from identity. To be relieved of the burden of being me. To run away from myself. Nothing seems to be working. It seems that I am stuck with this person for the rest of my life.

The moments in life which take you away from yourself are heavenly. I think the serenity prayer should be to ask God to 'Save us from ourselves'.
