To be lonely is a burden that harms you with a thousand cuts. At first, it seems like peace and quiet. Then it seems like a state we’ve chosen for ourselves. Before we know it, it becomes a crippling disease that we know can kill us.

Thank you for this lovely advice on how to fight it.

You're absolutely right. Loneliness can be insidious. It's great you recognize it before it gets stronger.

'Vulnerability is your greatest power.' I really like that thought, even though it seems so at odds with all perceptions of power. I'm going to hold on to it.

It's counterintuitive, but so true! Vulnerability opens doors to connection and growth. Glad it resonated with you!
