Lesson LEARNED

... at least I think

“When you’re accustomed to loneliness, you become in tune with the rhythms of yourself and your own mind — because you always have to answer yourself at the end of the day, to be alone with your thoughts. You’ll also know how important self-love and reliance is, to love yourself before you love someone else, but I think the universality of loneliness teaches us what that love is. To be lonely is to be human, to feel pain, to be forced to know yourself — and the universality of it binds us.

 Love is embracing that universality and surrendering to it.”

~ Nico Lang, When You’re Lonely, You’re Not Alone
