I feel loneliness now. That’s ok though, I know I’ll achieve greater connection with people in time. I work from home most of the time and most of my good friends moved away. 

I just know that whatever happens, to persevere. In my time when I am alone, I focus on how beautiful the world is and how amazing it is to be here, it is an amazing place and I’m so thankful to be here. I’ve had my hardships, but I decide to keep looking forward, no matter what happens in my life. 

The positive of alone time is that it enables great insight and creative thinking and I’ve used this to my advantage. In saying that, I’ve signed up for volunteering and a book club, as I just love reading. I’m currently reading Shakespeare at the moment and it is amazing. 

I think that no matter how lonely you feel there is always a bright side, and there is generally always someone out there to talk to, including help lines. So whoever you are, if you are experiencing loneliness, just know that you are not alone.
