Today i had a long conversation with a man on the subject of isolation. We were discussing how young i was but my mind seemed old. So I decided to give you a firsthand experience of my life and the role isolation plays in my story. I am in Northern California pretty much on my own. I have come to this "foreign land" a young man looking to grow withing himself and take advantage of the opportunities laid before me for the betterment of my family's life. Yes you are part of my family don't feel left out.  The point is i have placed myself in isolation and those of you who feel like you can't get a moment to yourself be careful what you wish for. The isolation gives you an opportunity to get acquainted with yourself, but its not all pros there are some cons. The isolation helps me to clear my head take that much needed breath. At the same time the isolation creates chaos amongst those back home. They feel the need to fill the void but it will never be the same. When you are this far away it feels difficult to be relevant in the lives of those you love but honestly you will always be relevant in the lives of those that matter. Those who are truly for you will stick by you those who were born flakes will fade away. You can't stress about such things they must work themselves out. 

Isolation also forces people out of there comfort zone. This forces you to adapt and that alone will make a person mature much quicker. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder but to be honest mine only grows more depressed everyday. Homesickness gets to you and you feel very lonely from time to time. These are the moments when you need to remember those that make you the strong person you are. When you start to doubt you should remember those that believe in you. This is the process you must go through to grow. Its the breaking down to build you back up. Trust me it works I have been through it enough times to know. After you overcome the self doubt, depression, and withdrawal its like a second wind. You have what you need to take on the world. The isolation is your retreat in order to cut losses and eventually win the war since you know when to pick your battles. Don't be afraid to let your world go and embrace the isolation what was yours will come back to you what wasn't will be lost.......
