Paulo Coelho
[...]
I begin to imagine how many millions of people at this very moment are feeling absolutely useless and miserable – no matter how rich, charming, enchanting they may be – because tonight they too are all alone, and last night too, and tomorrow they might be lonely as well. Young people who have found nobody to go out with tonight, elderly people sitting in front of the TV as if it were the last hope of salvation, businessmen in their hotel rooms wondering whether what they do has any sense to it, since all that they feel at this moment is the despair of being all alone.
I remember a comment someone made during dinner: a recent divorcee said “now I have all the freedom I always dreamed of.” That’s a lie. No-one wants that kind of freedom, all of us want a commitment, a person to be at our side to see the beauties of Geneva, discuss their views of life or even just share a sandwich. Better to eat half a sandwich than a whole one without anyone to share anything with, not even a little bit of food. Better to be hungry than to be alone. Because when you are alone – and I am talking about the loneliness that we do not choose, the loneliness that we are obliged to accept – it is as if we no longer belonged to the human race.
I start walking towards the beautiful hotel on the other river bank, with its super-comfortable room, its kind staff, its top-quality service. Soon I will be asleep and tomorrow this strange sensation that for some reason or other overpowered me today will be no more than a memory, remote and odd, because I won’t have any more reason to say: I’m lonely.
On the way back I pass by other solitary people; they look either arrogant (because they prefer to pretend that they chose to be alone on such a beautiful evening) or sad (because they know that there is nothing worse in life). I consider striking up a conversation with them, but I know that they are ashamed of their own loneliness. Maybe it is better for them to reach the limit and then understand how necessary it is to dare, to talk to strangers, to discover where to meet people, to avoid going home to watch TV or read a book – because if they do that the meaning of life will be lost, loneliness will have become a vice, and from then on the long way back to human companionship will no longer be found.

I have read what you wrote about loneliness and it’s somehow true…..but one thing stroke…what you said about your friend that got divorced….there is another solitude, another kind of loneliness, which one may experience when being in a relationship….i believe that’a one kind of loneliness that many people experience becuse they are afraid of being alone….so what’s worse: sharing a sandwhich but yet feeling lonely while doing so or eating it alone?
This reminds me of when I was in Paris in 2008. I was walking back to my hotel from a party, after the party I went to a club and got a little drunk! On the walk to the hotel I saw a girl sleeping on the street. I asked her if she wanted some money, she jumped up like a wild cat and said “no” in a US accent. I felt something inside just telling me to walk on, so I did. I walked up the street and onto another street. I had to ask the Parisian police how to get back to my hotel, I was about to complain about something but decided to walk on again back to my hotel, I went home the next day.
The sensation of loneliness comes from the lack of being able to communicate with your inner self and with others too, not managing to feel as a part of the universe. In fact, we are never alone but only have the feeling of being alone, being separated from the rest of the world. It’s an illusion, we can’t be really separated, but only in our minds and especially the ego gives us this sensation which hurts inside.
Love makes you feel wonderful even when you are isolated in a remote place, on the top of the mountain, so, it’s a matter of perspective, the way we choose to feel.
Many hugs! :o)
Dear Pandora, now I must find a book to recommend you with a happy and optimistic mood!!!What do you think of ….re-reading the Alchemist?’
Love,
Thelma
I dare anyone to read Broken Wings by K. Gibran and not feel the worst type of loneliness ever imaginable.
Thelma recommended it to me, and it is pure pain.
Dear Luce, thanks for your sweet explanation! And you know what: I even agree with you in what you say and recognise the feeling of loneliness you describe, and think many will.
The part that made me have a different opinion is this one:
“On the way back I pass by other solitary people; they look either arrogant (because they prefer to pretend that they chose to be alone on such a beautiful evening) or sad (because they know that there is nothing worse in life). I consider striking up a conversation with them, but I know that they are ashamed of their own loneliness”
Because I wonder… lots of people nowadays make a decision; do I stay with somebody just for the company although I feel no connection with this person? And more and more people decide not to, so they sometimes end up alone for a short or longer while, and maybe feel too hurt or disappointed to try again at that moment.
But is it the judgement of people that are not in that situation that makes one feel horrible, exclused and sad and like a walking charity case? Or does that really come from within?
That’s also why I think the Bridget Jones part, posted somewhere above here is so typical for the way couples or people that are never alone look at people that are alone. Like Bridget Jones says “I feel like an idiot most of the time anyway, so you really need not bother telling me you think so as well”
I think that was my point…. but I really should not be into all this discussions too much, because I seem to loose track and forget my point completely!!!
Lots of love and respect,
Mariëlle
oui, il vaut mieux partager un sandwich que de le manger tout seul.
Dear Paulo,
Very nice sharing your thoughts about the loneliness we sometimes feel almost always inside big cities, because that’s where we can compare to others. I often felt it as I made trips for my work.
In the same field, what about writing some lines about the loneliness some of us feel when, following common sense, they should never do ? I mean, what about the loneliness of the (failed) marriage ?
Dear Marielle, thank you, your point taken, but just to clear one thing…I did not intend to say you were wrong, who am I to judge ??? I meant about type of loneliness Paulo talked about.
I asure you there are people, me for one, that are in some moment ashamed and not at peace with loneliness at some point in their lives.
Sometimes it feels just like enormous vulnerability, impotence, lost battle, not to say being looser…that makes you built wall arround you not to feel hurt and exclused. One put mask on and walk just like Paulo described, or even worse one get angry with all others!
Thank you for your reprimand as it gave me possibility to explain myself and I repeat, it was nothing personal, just my point of view as it is yours.
Love and respect,
Luce
you are never not single
you arrive with a cloud of witnesses
they wipe you off
cut the cord
wrap you up
and lay you to breast
at the other end
maybe there is someone left
or maybe not
depending on
how well we spent the time
in between
we join, we part,
we dance,
we give, we take
we wait or run after
does the phone ring?
who is it?
What do they want?
Why do I care?
When I lay down at night
the lights remain in the sky
faded by the neon and traffic lights,
the rumble and roar of traffic
the shouted imprecation
out there
wrapped up in this dark
hearing heart beat
shuffle of feet
up stairs
furniture across floor
sigh stirs the wisp of dream around
curtain filaments faded light
rattle of skittering cats
down the alley
ah, but morning breathes deeply
more quiet, more alive
numbering leaves
in sun rise and grass shadows
heart canters with fresh,
heart canters alone
knowing this moment
as big as God
These ideas you express about solitude are a bit melodramatic and self-indulgent – and yet everyone feels the same when we allow loneliness to overtake us. I guess it is natural.
It seems to me that we are both wave and particle. We all fight like hell most of the time to establish connections and maintain connections – to exist as a wave. Periodically we slip into, or glimpse, the other aspect of reality, and that is that we are also a small discreet particle in a vast and indifferent Universe. And that realization can be quite terrifying.
Too often human culture or society is too flimsy an anchor to wave reality. It’s when relationships and material expectations fail us that we succumb. When loneliness grips us, I think it’s best to connect to something bigger/deeper. Progress along those lines, and I wonder if we approach a point when we can experience both wave and particle. Who knows?…
Thanks for that insight.
I Like the song “My sweet Lord” too. Obrigado. Muito bem.
Ca me rappelle le temps passe a Londres, j’entendais cette chanson presque tous les jours lorsque je passais devant le magasin juste en face du “Wimpy Bar”. Le gars avait pris l’habitude de me siffler chaque fois que je passais devant…….. Il etait pas anglais ca c’est sur.
“Because when you are alone – and I am talking about the loneliness that we do not choose, the loneliness that we are obliged to accept – it is as if we no longer belonged to the human race.” This is the feeling of disconnection that comes from loneliness, yes, when you are so lonely that you feel as if you are the only one that exists, and that you are all alone in the world.
If it is a feeling you must accept, then do so for a short time willingly, because there is a lesson there for you. Reflect on what this experience is bringing to you and when you’re ready, then reach out to those around you.
Arrogance, sadness, shame… Some people give away their emotions and their thoughts and you are able to tell what is on their mind just by looking into their eyes and watching body language. Other people are better at hiding these things and so what you get back when you look into their eyes is the mirrored image of your own emotions and thoughts.
I guess I never really thought that loneliness could be a vice. So, in your last paragraph, then, to me you are speaking of taking risks, the kind that fit the situation at hand, and in this particular case, of taking the risk of reaching out to another human being.
En momentos de soledad miro al cielo y me doy cuenta que sola nunca estoy. El universo siempre esta conmigo y me alegra. La naturaleza me enseña que Dios me Ama y desea que continue hacia adelante.
It’s a incredible good description. I still remember this part from your book Zahir. But I don’t agree with the main persons decision. If you have the time and energy it’s better to try to talk with the lonely persons instead of leaving them alone. Just a few sentences can tell if they really want a conversation. Better be two than one.
Loneliness is a place of deep feelings of emptiness and despair where you question your very existence.
If you have empathy you can feel this loneliness although it is not your loneliness … you can feel this pain although it is not your pain …you can see the darkness although it is not your darkness…you can feel the tears running down your cheeks although they are not your tears…
Sharing the pain of loneliness with every breath – accepting your pain as mine with agape.
Seconds or minutes how long does it last and then it is over …
May I have the strength to share your pain whenever it is necessary .
With kindness

Solitude and loneliness are not the same thing.You have written beautifully about both.There was a time I was afraid and ashamed of being alone and chose a wrong companion which ended up in a break up after many years.
I learned that loneliness is not to be ashamed of. Neither is it to be proud.
We have to tackle our loneliness and keep us going all the time.The big show of life goes on.
Why is it that a topic comes up on this forum when I am reading exactly about it. I am currently reading The Zahir. Hmm. Synchronicity maybe?
Perhaps I wasn’t so clear in my earlier post. I am not great expressing my feelings, words sometimes elude me. I am alone, in solitude, although my son lives with me for now. I am the caregiver. I interact with him only when necessary at the moment. I am needing my space.
While I have this time of not working, I have been enjoying not being around people. I am going inward and learning what I need to know. To me that is solitude. I share parts of myself with others when required. I would like to share the whole package with another one day. I am not sure if that is truly possible, but I like the idea of it.
I can understand how people may be sad about what they think is lacking in their lives. I feel fortunate every day for what I have and for what I know is coming, so I don’t feel that I am lacking anything right now. Maybe it is this feeling of something that is missing that I am not being able to empathise with.
I am alone, all by myself, in my solitude, because that is just the way it is right now. I am not happy about it nor am I sad about it. I just am.
Luce; I don’t think there is a wrong or a right path when it comes to having a different opinion. Everybody has their own path. My truth does not have to be somebody elses truth.
I am a very big fan of Mr. Coelho’s work and admire every bit of wisdom there is in there, and I’m learning such a lot from it. Still, that does not stop me from having my own mind with my own thoughts, and that does not mean I respect anybody any less.
When I speak for myself I can only say that there are times, sometimes years, I feel totally happy being surrounded by people, be it lovers, friends or strangers to share my food and thoughts with. But there are also times when I feel totally happy being all by myself, and actually avoid having to share my thoughts with anybody. Usually when I have to sort something out for myself, without being influanced by what the rest of the world may think of it. I don’t know if that is wrong or right, but that ís the way it works for me.
Peace and love,
Mariëlle
Solitude guides some to the association with:
their real feelings,
their Holy God,
their soul.
But, after a while, I would feel more like a peaceful animal.
Man needs social life, needs to be with others.
But to carefully select them.
Because, if not, he will feel so lonely…
“…I am talking about the loneliness that we do not choose, the loneliness that we are obliged to accept.”
I am young, only 22, surrounded by a small yet strong family and blessed in life with people I know I will love until the end of my days, people who have become a sort of extended family. Yet, there are days when I can appreciate my own company, when I can wake up and be completely content while immersed in my own thoughts and when those thoughts and ideas can keep me busy through days end. In an age where we are always accessible via technology, I find immense pleasure in tossing my cell phone into a remote corner of my apartment and walking through the city, not saying a word for hours. That day can turn into days. I have no longing for romantic fulfillment–if it comes my way and I am willing to accept it then so be it, but I do not search for it nor am I quit to accept any offer of companionship. I like that I don’t long for these things, for constant connection to another person, that I can pick and choose my words and give meaning and truth to each one because I don’t feel the necessity to say or share everything within me. For a reason I cannot pinpoint, a feeling in my teeth I can’t control, picking at my mouth, this quality of mine scares me. I cannot figure whether it is just a phase or an innate instinct that will neither pass nor be controlled. And what if, like Mr.Coelho says, this loneliness that I believe is my choice becomes a loneliness I will be forced to accept.

Why do I have feeling that Jena and Marielle are on the wrong path ?
Because though it may be totaly humbly ??? written it can not include everybody, it does not include myself for example !
Paulo’s view is much larger, no limits humbly or not.
I do understand solitude and difference from loneliness,
I know singleness and relationship full of lonelines, I lived them both, experienced both….and I agree with Mr. Coelho.

Maybe what Paulo means by loneliness isn’t the romantic relationship that we usually associate with “loneliness”.
I am single but I am not alone. I give myself to others. I give my other half of sandwich to people I have committed to love for the rest of my life. I will always find people to share my life with, romantic or not.
When I eat in the restaurant alone, because I choose to. But in my mind, sometimes, I think of my friends or my family who I want to tell how amazingly delicious that food was. I want to share with them that feeling. Even through stories.
There is no contention in his post. I don’t think he entirely meant the romantic kind of love. That would be too limiting.
When we say loneliness, I think, it means that we are afraid of extending ourselves to other people, in whatever form of relationship.
Even if I have dogs, fish, birds and all of them as my pets, I would still like to find a person, be it a child, a man, or an elderly, to share my thoughts with. =) Ah! It is so nice to feel connected with people.
You talk to my soul Mr. Paulo!!!
No doubt there are moments, when I feel myself acting and pretending that I have chosen my solitude but the fact is that deep down inside, somewhere, things are not the same as those on the surface.
But there are few moments, as you said, when loneliness seems to be merely a thought or not even that as well.
One question: The Mind of a Human is in the state of being stagnant for sometime now. Life is moving by but that Human has no way out to Move. How can it be tackled?

Well my lovely one you tackled me allready!!!
But if I will not see your FACE prior,and you will still hidden,i will get very angry!!!like today…ha,ha(seriously).
So,now is YOUR time to move and I´v done I think everything to tackle you!!!
Love you! I think this was the THIRD KNOCKING!!!

I am alone. I am not lonely. It took me a very long time to adjust to my ‘singleness’. Although I would like to share my life with someone special, I can wait until they find me. I have been more lonely in a relationship than I have been on my own. There is nothing worse than being with someone who doesn’t really know who you are.
I have learned to like myself and am happy in my own company because I know who I am now. The good and the bad. I now prefer to be alone than settle for being with someone just because I do not want to be alone. I wonder sometimes if there is that special person out there for me, that will find me and know me or if that moment has passed me by. I am not young anymore, but I do live in hope.
I dance. If I want to be around people, I know what to do and where to go. If I need the human touch, I dance Argentine Tango. When everything is right I can reach a place with the music that is magical. I cannot explain it, only feel it.
I have had my best holidays on my own. I will admit though that there were moments when I have thought how wonderful it would be to have someone with me to share it with. It is a fleeting thought. I have become so independent.
Interestingly enough, I am never really alone. There are people everywhere. I still have the cat.
though i don’t wish to judge, if someone is alone, they may be seeking their truth, so that once they fully know who they are, it is only then they can give to another. i do believe from which opposites emerge and to which, in time, they will all return…*
Jena, I humbly totally agree with what you say 100%… and admire you for your capablility to expres this in such a clear way, it expresses everything I could not find the words for.
Love
Que triste lo que cuentas Paulo pero se que es verdad que todo el mundo en algún momento siente esta soledad que es muy bonito compartir con alguien las cosas que vemos, que experimentamos. Simplemente el calor de la persona amada estando cerca se nota y estando lejos también, si no tienes persona amada esta es la cuestión entonces sobreviene el vacio que antes estaba ocupado.
El mejor estado no es estar casado o soltero, el mejor estado es estar enamorado. Todo cambia, tiene una cualidad mágica el amor.
Desearía que nunca te sintieras así, quizás tengamos que tener en cuenta que eres una ser frágil y amoroso que necesita ser amado a cada instante.
Te mando mis besos y mis abrazos para que no te sientas solo.
Se que los demas también aquí hay mucho cariño.
Dearest Paulo,
Humbly I disagree with your last paragraph.
How can anyone truly ‘know’ what anyone else is feeling? For we are all unique and live our own realities and own purpose. I draw a distinction between loneliness and being alone. Whilst I would love to be in a beautiful relationship with one whom I can share myself and my journey with, I am also at peace in my solitude because I understand that this person will be brought into my life one day. How can I know this? I don’t rationally know but I can trust and have faith and with this I believe and am at peace.
There are many times when I am walking alone when I feel at greatest peace and at one with the world. It is at these times when there are no external distractions yet in no way do I feel lonely. But rather I feel surrounded and embraced by the energy of the universe and in these moments, I also understand no one person is ever truly ‘alone’.
Loneliness is experienced by people when they are in a place within themselves which prevents them from connecting. For some reason or event has led them to build barriers for self-protection. In time these barriers will come down again and they will reconnect, for it is something we are all capable of.
In my humble opinion, I don’t believe anyone who has made such a subjective judgment about a passer-by as being ashamed of their own loneliness should strike up a conversation. While intention may be genuine, one’s energy can also unconsciously portray negative judgment as easily as love and compassion. And if this passer-by feels this energy, the response will be negative and so it becomes in a sense a self-fulfilling prophecy for the person having made that subjective judgment will be, in their own mind, justified in their belief.
People who wander alone have a greater opportunity for strangers to approach and meet new people than do people who wander in pairs or groups. People are naturally drawn to others when they can hear their heart and also at times, need solitude to heal.
Some personal journeys may experience solitude for longer period than others, but human companionship will always be found. Everyone is unique and unique in their own personal spirituality. Nothing should ever prevent us from opening our hearts to our neighbours and offering a smile or ‘hello’ but conversely, nothing also should permit us to impose on another if we sense their need for solitude. The energy will always tell us when to act and when to respect others’ personal space.

“the loneliness that we do not choose, the loneliness that we are obliged to accept” Very well written Paulo.
I was experiencing loneliness that I did not choose and was obliged to accept – but then I made a choice, I took a risk and reached out and now have someone to look at the beauty of the world with, to discuss our views on life and share a sandwiches with.
I would tell all lonely people to take that risk and reach out to someone. To make a stranger a friend and enjoy all the pleasures that it brings.
the solitude…is = lonelines?
is it my choise to stop comunication with the surrounding people and make only virtual?
…should i comunicate with all the meanless i meet everyday only to not stand alone?…and yet i feel more sole surroundet then i stand alone…cos i found u (baby, :)) sher),all the great guys there in this blog.
i miss my old friends as i can*t be with them as often as i want,i miss them deadly…
all r here in my heart and i love them so much
that the solitude doesn*t knock on my door
the choise is mine…still…
poor the ones that r fallen into a habit
Dear Paulo,
I can’t say whether you’re right or wrong in your assessment of a stranger’s loneliness and his/her consequent attempts to hide it. But,I absolutely agree with you. I think that you are uncanningly intuitive. I also believe that non-verbal communication is most often more honest and far more telling than words. I also agree that love/companionship is as essential to human life as air to breathe. The phenomenon of “failure to thrive” in infants is the best example of our need for human touch.
What you have written is so sensitive and honest, and I just want to say thank you to you for always sharing with us and everything else you do for us. It’s a privilege and an honor to have the opportuinity to share ideas with you.
With love,
Diane
So, is it safe to assume such behavior leads to a life of being recluse?
i know this feelings, too…thanks for sharing your thoughts
I always felt that life was a play and we were all on stage. Everyone knew their lines…. except me….I never knew what was going on. I tried to understand…tried to copy the others…but something was missing… Outwardly I managed to look like the other actors and even sometimes convinced myself that I was one of them and was not alone, but not for long….That loneliness would find me when I stopped acting.
Now, (and I must say relatively recently), I find a kind of reversal in my life. Now I know my lines, they come from my heart, and I am heard and speak with others who also speak from their hearts. The loneliness only comes occassionally, just like it did with Paulo, and then it passes, as I know it always will.
Oh…that’s 2 times thanks Paulo :-)
And thanks Hildegarde is what i mean
“Suppose it doesn’t help that underneath our clothes our entire boddies are covered in scales”
“I like you just as you are…”
Thanks Paulo and Nine Rebecka and Paulo
Lots of love,
Mariëlle :-)
…and tonight I’m not alone but all the same I’m so lonely !
Love
Luce
Dear Paulo,
I agree with you, you made me pull out LP of Janis Joplin and listen to “Me and My Bobby McGee” and the words “…freedom ‘s just another word for nothing left to loose…” and as you say nowdays is easy to take vice of loneliness and hard to come back.
It is sad and crippled life when there is no one with whom to divide beauty of the moment, sorrow, sunshine on your face, happiness, burst of joy, tears.
Love
Luce
Reading an article about solitude, being alone, and loneliness by, paulo coelho, is interesting it makes me wonder what I will learn. I think for me I will need to ask what does being alone mean to me and how do I feel about the times being alone.
“loneliness will have become a vice”
You reminded me yesterday of a wonderful day in Rome. Today I read your story in one minute, and the last line in 60 seconds more.
Whatever happened to that smiling girl in Rome? When did she dissipate, exactly? How could something so alive become … me. It seems ages ago, yet there were only four years. I miss her, I miss that girl in Rome to tears.
There is an Italian song I’m reminded by your line
‘ perche la solitudine
che non sorride mai
diventa habitudine
e non la scelta che tu fai ‘
‘because luneliness
that never smiles
becomes habit
and not your choice’
Music is emotional, is inducing, is moving…but is not always right. This song is wrong, because habit is a choice.
And any habit can be broken.
It wasn’t this continent, it is not my upbringing, nor the failed love that lost the smiling girl of Rome … it was ME. My choices, my habits, my actions, my thoughts. Nobody else responsible but me.
i have to think. i have to act. i want her back.
Well,sometimes is like u cant do a thing against that.No matter how or what you try,just is destiny.BUt can be so hard to pass over,and hard to understand,whats the use,why to me happens/
“There is no reality in living by accident. It appears that we are living by accident, by assumptions and by opinion. And the zest of finding the reality appears. Some times there might be a feeling of no reality.”

God bless you all ! (Paulo Coelho’s Blog Readers, PCBR)
Os posts Solitude I e II me fizeram muito refletir, visto que se trata de minha situação atual. Embora tenha escolhido ficar sozinha por muitas vezes depois de um ano, não acho isso saudavel e estou de acordo com você Paulo. Porém, apos vivenciar fortes traições e passar por humilhações, acho que é instantâneo este recolhimento e que passamos, depois disso, a nos proteger do “amor”. Vejo isto até construtivo num certo ponto, visto que a introspecção nos ajuda a nos conhecermos mais, a nos amarmos mais, a termos mais compreensão com nos mesmos. Mas depois de longo tempo na filosofia “ande so doque mal acompanhado” estou começando a perceber o quanto isto pode me fazer mal, e gostaria de, em breve, poder voltar a acreditar no amor.
Am among the millions of people that you pass by, i also want to strike a conversation before the evening turns to night, to a break of another day. But hey, the ego inside wont let me. I contemplate on the much i could say or do or places i could visit, yet deep inside i know there is more that i want. Dont know how to go about it. Inside i am all alone, there is soo much emptiness to yonder. All around it seems life has crowned me with multiple friends to listen. But still, the solitude . . .
I think that each one of us defines the term alone and lonely in his own way. It is also a matter of sensitivity. Some may be happy to be ‘with’ other people and talk…talk… talk and enjoy listening to their own voice! You try to answer or say your opinion and none listens. Everyone is absorbed in his own ‘walls’ and his ego.
I do not mind being alone, sitting in peace and doing things that make me feel full. I love my family, but I think each one of us needs his own privacy and space. We need to grow inside and ‘Silence is ..gold’, used to say the Ancient Greeks philosophers.
My ideal is to …use our super-senses and be ONE with our Soul-mate and the Universe. We are never alone.
LOVE,
Thelma
This was really nice what you wrote there,this 2 parts story.Did you really feel that alone?Geneva,Paris,London ect..all big towns are giving that sensation sometimes.I had hard time when I first arrived in London,but I was really alone,you,you have a family right?So it was just an evening,just a sensation.i’m sure you are better now,did you leave Geneva?But it was very well described.I think we have all experienced this,even sometimes,we are not alone and we feel lonely anyway,so,we are really complicated.
Buenos días!…les propongo a todos los seguidores como yo de Paulo que hoy nos dediquemos a el, que tanto nos ah dado con su tan sabia escritura mágica, hoy nos toca a nosotros regalarle esas palabras que necesita un buen amigo…vamos! Seamos creativos inventemos algo que le cambie el día. Pensemos que podemos hacer o que podemos decirle para su pequeño estado de soledad .
I guess we are seldom alone in solitude… we are occupied by our own thoughts :)
We feel lonely only when we really ponder over the fact.. .or it could be that we just desire to have someone beside. But even those moments pass by as we soon start contemplating..and even before we realize the business of this world takes over our solitude in no time.
