I loved your beautifully crafted and meaningful piece giving us a glimpse of your inner world. It is wonderful to write about your authentic feelings. Your conclusion is beautiful and resonates well with me. I used to feel lonely in my younger years but later I found that it was in the mind. It was possible for me to frame loneliness and turn it into solitude which brought joy and serenity. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings. I enjoyed your story very much.
I link my old story here to enhance the meaning of your narrative.
