Five Minute Freewrite: Suppress

Loneliness is a feeling that is becoming too well-known, and I sometimes don’t like how it makes me feel. Only by experiencing a self-reflection did I realize how lonely we truly are. Being born alone and experiencing loneliness are two completely different feelings.

Being born as a man did not make anything easy. We have been brought up with the notion that men should learn to suppress all their feelings. We are unable to express ourselves, even when it hurts or not; we have been programmed to suppress all our emotions.

However, I believe that one day all these suppressions would come to an end and every single one of us would be able to express ourselves freely. Live life when you can and suppress when its absolutely needed but above all things just try to make yourself happy.
