Loneliness is painful, emotionally and even physically, born from a “want of intimacy” when we need it most, in early childhood. Solitude - the capacity to be contentedly and constructively alone - is built from successful human connection at just that time. ~ Sherry Turkle We’re all a bit scared of loneliness - of being alone. Of being left. Of not being loved. Or needed. Or cared about. “Lonely” hits a spot of fear in all of us even if we don’t acknowledge it. ~ Sue Bourne Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose. ~ Viktor Frankl
