With every rising, a falling; every advancement, a retreat; every calling, both a beckoning and a temptation to be defiant.

In all its simplicity that is the complexity, nothing exists in solitude, not even the notion of being alone. It would be beyond the comprehension of mankind to internalize the concept of being alone if the ideals of companionship and community development had never been conceived. In many ways, we only understand certain aspects of life through opposites. Perhaps, the conception of the word "solitude" was accompanied (an ironic choice of word but we will go on) with the definition as such: "the opposite of being together" or "not together". Most likely, antonyms were crafted for each other so as to spice up the way we verbalize our thoughts and to differentiate the intensity of emotions. But it really makes you wonder, which word came first: the positive or the negative.

It is quite fascinating and almost certainly bizarre how we can attempt to dissect and deconstruct the human psychology only be reflecting upon the roots of our language. But in some sense, it only ties in with logic that we are doing so. After all, language has always been the foundation upon all good and bad, all loneliness and togetherness. Language is the one thing that comes without a partner, because it is second to none and non-substitutable. But with almost every unfounded postulation that I propose, we will never know the results of such findings. I am merely satiated with marveling at how much we can know with so little that we already know.

Although nothing was created to be alone, it does not necessarily mean everything will be located in pairs. That is the scratch on the almost picture-perfect diamond, scathed and helpless.
