Yes, that's certainly true in many respects. While having support from family, friends, and partners is wonderful and can be very beneficial, there are some journeys, decisions, and experiences in life that ultimately, we have to face alone.

Personal growth, self-discovery, and certain decisions are individual journeys. There are times when we alone have to face our fears, confront our truths, or make choices that define our path. For example, when making a significant career decision, others can provide advice and opinions, but ultimately the decision and responsibility lie with you.

This doesn't necessarily mean these experiences are lonely or negative. These journeys can foster self-reliance, resilience, personal growth, and a deepened understanding of oneself.

That being said, even when you're on a path that you must walk alone, it doesn't mean you can't seek guidance, wisdom, or emotional support from others. It's important to connect with others when possible and beneficial, and to recognize when professional support, like a counselor or therapist, could be helpful.

Remember that while you may walk your path alone, many have walked similar paths before you, and there are always people who can provide support and understanding when you need it.
