Self - Sufficiency ( Loneliness etc)

Loneliness , depression and such maladies are common complaints . Symptoms of a basic lack experienced by humans because they are social animals . 
Often , disappointment  upon expectations is a root cause . No one else is to blame .
Waiting to be able to meet someone you like to meet and who is busy elsewhere is like waiting on the side of a rural road for the bus to come by . Unknown schedules making the ears strain for a distant sound and the eyes ache for a sighting . 
That is Loneliness ! It is also the build up of expectation because you BELIEVE the bus #Will come and as the minutes stretch to hours - seeming much longer than normal - one stands Alone .....
But are we really alone ? Can we experience the Presence of that Witness ?  Tough call !
Personally , I like to divert attention from the expectant waiting to keeping the mind busy composing essays and poems and telling myself jokes .. 
One other  way i find useful - 
We can bring into virtual existence anyone/anything  we think of . Think of a person / place or thing and you are no longer alone 😊 
May not be as good as the real thing but then do we have a choice ? 
Trust me , I have had some great conversations like this. 
Not that I don't crave meeting people but in the absence loneliness and depression are somewhat relieved .
