i know i'm not the only person who's ever felt this way... but, sometimes, it just gets so hard to remember that i have friends and family who love me, when i'm feeling as disconnected as i am right now. it usually doesn't even happen for any good reason; say, going a day (OHNOES a whole day) without talking to the people closest/most important to

Being able to find the beauty in your life, even when you're down is one of the truest strengths. I think it is also very brave to open up and tell people how difficult it is. I don't know you as well as I like, we have traveled in the same circles for years but have never been really close. But I think you're a wonderful person and I am glad to know you.

Thank you, Chase, I really did appreciate reading that. I do hope we will have more opportunities to connect in the future... all signs are pointing to yes in that regard since I seem to have successfully unhermited myself. :]

I agree with that quote...

Georges Sand was brilliant, definitely one of my heroes!

Aw. I don't want to put 'fortuitous' and 'loneliness' in the same sentence, but it sounds like the timing was such; it's always the reassurance that one is not alone in one's feelings that helps the most, in my opinion. :>

Sending you pip pip cheerio love in a pint from London! Also feeling lucky that I get to see you more regularly now, when I'm in town that is.

London has rubbed off on you! And thank you, I really do appreciate that; the sentiment is mutual!

I am glad you're back around. We all have these thoughts.

Yeah, sometimes all one needs is to be reminded that one is not alone in having such feelings in order to feel better. I'm so fortunate to know the people I know. :]
