The thin line between being alone and being lonely. The latter can be really difficult. That stage when one doesn’t even have his/her own company. So well penned this is!
Alienation is a sad state of affairs for buildings and particularly for people. Elderly are sometimes lonely, cultures are separated and people forgotten. Lovely and thought provoking words shared here. So happy you stopped by to let me know you had been traveling, Maniparna. 🙂
