Marriage is not the only way to have a life.
You don’t need a ring to feel complete,
nor a crowd to prove your worth.
You just need the fire that burns inside,
and the silence that lets it breathe.
Let them have the drink,
let them have the night,
let them dance beneath the noise of light.
You — stay with your thoughts,
your ink, your pain,
the quiet room where greatness is born again.
You owe no one an explanation
for walking alone.
The world may call it loneliness,
but you will know it as freedom —
the kind that builds, the kind that dreams.
You were made to rise,
to burn,
to build something that didn’t exist before.
Be alone — not empty, but full.
Full of thought, full of fire, full of direction.
When you walk alone,
you hear your own footsteps
and they become a rhythm —
the sound of becoming.
Marriage is not the only way to have a life.
Creation, compassion, courage —
these too are homes.
So be alone,
not as a void,
but as a voice that rises
to meet its own destiny.
