The lone empty room

<p>"So now we are one less tenant in our house... so would anyone like to live with us? $300 a month for the room. It's all we're asking. We will have free WiFi and..."</p>
<p>I feel every time I ask this question I'm asking them to really take a part in our lives and at least hang out with us. Because truly, what we want is someone more than acquaintance to get along with. At least for me just someone to share our family time with. I was raised in knowing that a house is a shelter full of relaxation and the freedom to share ideas and thoughts. Being a family without being an actual family is all that I'm asking. But maybe it's too much.</p>
<p>I invited my friend Rudy to live with us. It would be closer to his job and as well he would be more independent from his family and actually being on his own. But the best reason is Tiffany and I will get along with him the best. We can trust him. And he won't be afraid to hang around in the house. It would've been like a brother living in the house.. without any blood ties, like a real family would be.</p>
<p>The other tenants I liked them but I wanted to be closer to them. Maybe I'm yearning for more family. Or more friends to be around us. But the other tenants wanted to be by themselves always. I wonder on my times alone that when we grow up we tend to separate ourselves into our lives. Just distance ourselves from one another. What kind of life is a life without fond people to be around. I don't understand it. These might be one of my other deep thoughts to think about. But in this lonesome world that we live in sometimes I think maybe there's a better way to be doing things than what my other tenants have done. But in the end some people will always be in a lone empty room.</p>
