Living alone can be hard at first and it does take some time getting used to. There will be times of bleakness and despair, but what I have seen is that these do not last very long. Its just your mind playing tricks on you. You have to completely accept being alone in order to enjoy it or even endure it. It can get hard at times but you can make it.

Regret
How do you face yourself when you see that you never expressed what needed to be expressed. That you never said what you even now hide underneath all the surface of your thoughts? Now when its too late, what is the use of telling it? What is the answer dear heart? How come I never could say what I most needed to say? And now how do I live with it? How do I let go of the past? How does one live with the regret of never having said what one needed to say?

Inner Peace
Inner peace is the most valuable treasure one can have. The great sense of serenity in the midst of all the turbulence of life is the final end of wisdom. To be like a rock, unshaken in the midst of all the countless thoughts seeking to pull you one way or another is something that must be treasured.
So the question then is what is the origin of inner peace? What is it that makes a man go through all the suffering and pain of life with an inner smile. One thing is for sure, inner peace is independent of all external circumstances. Come what may, inner peace cannot be touched. Nothing external has any power over this priceless commodity, yea much more priceless than all the gold in the world. Of what use it is to possess the entire wealth of the world and yet be tossed around like a helpless piece of log in the storm of life. This is considered to be the greatest gift, the peace that passeth all understanding.
Inner peace originates from an inner confidence, an inner trust, an inner knowing, a deep inner certainty that cannot be touched by anything outside. It cannot be touched by poverty, ill health, physical pain, ridicule, humiliation, failure, success, victory, defeat, praise, honor, wealth, pleasure, fame, cold, isolation, loneliness. It is something that has transcended all external influence, like space which is untouched by any external object or sensation. So where does inner peace come from. This is a mystery. But it is something we already hold within us. We need only tap into it. We are born from this very place of supreme peace and we can never die from it. Know this. Surrender to this absolutely fundamental knowing. All people no matter where or in what condition or circumstance have access to this deep place inside. A place no obstacle or problem can touch. Even in the face of death can one remain in complete and total peace. Totally at rest and accept it completely. Like the vast and deep ocean which remains untouched by the furious activity of the waves.
All things appear equal from this place and all states appear equal. This peace is your birthright and no one and nothing can take it away from you. Rest in this supreme peace. This is Love. There is God here.

Fear and Separation
Just give up fear. That is all. That alone is enough.
All fear arises from a belief in separation. Therefore give up the belief in separation and free yourself from fear.
Only the knowledge of unity can heal. This is True Love.
