I actively reframe loneliness ( not great) into solitude ( awesome, time to introspect, read something useful ( leisure or just curiosity about the monthly hobbies ( re)- cycling , just watch how incredibly is just to sit and breathe and basically be alive.

Than you for the perspective and creative reminder ! it's bookmarked.

For me personally- it's a conscious reminder that I have to be aware to be conscious and to be mindful about it - (tricky) , and not be sucked into the loneliness self pitying and move into the gratefulness of solitude.

Yes! If you don't go back and look at the story, you can sometimes miss the happier ending! Was happy to be reminded.

Livio, What a lovely slice of growth. Thank you for staring. When I replce the word lonliness with solitude, I feel a completely different energy. D

In "The Work", author Byron Katie explores the question, "Is this really true?" It's an amazing look at the things we tell ourselves that may not really be true.

Loneliness is one. There are many others.

A moment to moment dropping of current story for a new one. One of replenishment and newness.
