loneliness

well what does one by the term loneliness..?? does it mean empty, void, null, seclusion or solitude?? loneliness will generally mean the above..but its is not easy to interpret how lonely or how secluded a person can be..its is that state of mind when nothing seems to be around and a qualities of exasperation and desperation takes control. Thus loneliness may be described as a feeling of being cut off, disconnected from and alienated from people or any species.
for eg consider a girl sitting in a coffee shop surrounded by people and her friends n the voices of their laughter are echoing through the shop. This girl is also having lots of fun and one can see that her face shows an expression of happiness.However within herself she isn't at peace and there is this void within her heart that doesn't let her live her life normally. The reason being that she is an introvert and doesn't open up to others. She doesn't take her friends or any of her family members into confidence and therefore has the feeling of loneliness or a depression which affects her life from functioning normally.
Loneliness is a relative and varies from person to person. A person may be lonely even if he has a lot of friends and pals but he doesn't get the deserved attention..in certain cases in spite of getting the attention and consideration the person feels detached..this means that there are people who are not satisfied by even the attention that certain are deprived of. A lonely person thus depend or rather hugs a some kind of illusion that makes him happy and keeps him going.According to me no human being can bear a steady view of moral solitude without going mad.Isolation is sum total of all the wretchedness that could happen to a person. A classic example would be from the movie OLDBOY where in a person is kept in solitary confinement for 15 years without telling him the reason and he's fed the same fried dumplings day in day out until he nearly goes mad.It is one of the real good movies that I've watched and the direction is simply amazing. The review will be kept for some other day. Coming back to the point them trying to make is that loneliness is an infection which has a remedy.No one ever discover the depths of his own loneliness. It is something that one will have to comprehend himself and take active measures so as not to go in further depression.Loneliness is just more than feeling of wanting company and the feeling of wanting of doing something.
loneliness has very simple and easy cure. A lonely person doesn't require attention..what he requires is love,affection,warmth and a sense of feeling that he is someone special.Thus isolation and negative attitude is the last thing that a estranged person would want.Loneliness might be bliss at times but too much of loneliness is just abnormality.
