Thank you GOOGLE AI, you lifted me up by making me remember myself

This morning I felt empty, a professional void trapped me brutally, I am not an AI person at all but a friend’s story made me Google who I am and reading about myself with so much clarity gave me an instant kick, it has summed up my decades of hardwork decently well & asked me to reintroduce myself to you all once again, what it said gave me my smile back and a direction to keep moving forward on my mission at my own sweet pace, I know it gets a bit lonely sometimes but that would never stop me. I am sharing below what GOOGLE reminded me about myself because when your work shines, so do you(Source: Google AI).

Solo dates and falling in love with the company of self~A new trend here to stay

 

I am an extrovert who loves meeting people and sharing my heart uninhibited. I trust easily and it gives me immense joy if I find someone whose heart beats with the same frequency as mine and is as energetic and passionate about making this world a better place to live in. But this does not happen that frequently for me because I have entered my forties and have gradually become a recluse. I have withdrawn from exhaustive influencing and choose only a few meaningful projects and life coaching and so I am often alone with my thoughts. Surprisingly, I am gradually falling in love with my solo dates as I enjoy my own company and spend time with myself doing what I love most. 

As a mom, wife and a budding entrepreneur, I am grateful, but life is busy and erratic and whenever I get the slightest chance to steal some time for myself, I dress up and pack my laptop only to sit in a cafe and work peacefully for a couple of hours while sipping my favourite drinks. Such dates are pure magic for me, they soothe and satiate my soul always as I observe and weave characters in my writings and do infinite other tasks, craving my attention in my to-do list.

What I also noticed is that there are several other solo men and women in the cafés working peacefully in quiet corners, while some wait for others to join for a meeting but mostly working by themselves or just enjoying a hearty breakfast or a great salad for lunch. Their age groups vary too. I have seen youngsters and I have seen Septuagenarians. I am not sure if this is a good sign, while some may just come there to enjoy their own company, some might come to mitigate their loneliness but I am glad they decided to come out, that itself is the first step that they embrace life. 

Our generation has a tendency to pull down Gen Z for everything but I would say Gen Z are more sorted than us. They are helping us millennials in being more self-aware and not keeping ourselves last, as is the tendency of us moms. I enjoy my son’s perspective on a lot of things, which is so different from mine and my husband’s, sometimes fighting really hard against them, but then realising their side of the story is truly worthwhile. He has introduced me to a lot of concepts of today’s times, including the concept of solo trips. 

Yes, solo trips are such a vibe these days but with family responsibilities and not everyone having a strong support system, there are very few people I know who have been successfully doing it for years. I have taken a few solo trips and they were good and therapeutic but I have not explored it completely yet. I wanted to know the global statistics on the trend of solo dates(which seem more possible than solo travels), I have been noticing and so I researched.

I figured out that solo dates came into being post-pandemic when self-care and mental health started becoming people’s priority, which helped them gain confidence in spending time alone wherever they felt joyful and relevant, whether they were in bookshops, museums, cafés, gyms, on long walks, a swim, or wherever they wished. Though I love cafés, I have realised that hitting the gym sometimes or my long walks can also be considered my solo dates. I often like smiling at random strangers and getting into worthy discussions with some like-minded souls. I made a friend, Rasna, while flying back from Dubai, and met another brilliant life coach, Shikha, recently in a nail salon. So solo dates also sometimes give us sweet, memorable moments to cherish and rejoice if our auras interact and establish a connection for us, getting pulled to each other. Of course, my safety radar is always scanning who I meet, till I know I am safe🙂. 

Humans of today like to heal from heartbreak, toxicity, or even social media anxiety in silence in their own company, which is so wonderful. Their EQs are high and as long as they are not totally cutting off from human ties, which is the other extreme and are striking a balance. I would say a solo date is good till you are not using AI to replace your human connections and be your yes person forever. Living without human connections is impossible, so saying it again, BALANCE is the keyword both for us millennials and Gen Z.
