Everyone claims to be lonely,
but their afraid of intimacy.
They keep their TV on for company,
expecting more from technology
and less from their partners . .
Social networks give the illusion
of companionship, without the
demands of friendship.

"We don't see things as they are,
we see them as we are."

As someone said, what you see in me, is a reflection of you... I do agree, people are frightened of intimacy, of being vulnerable, or showing their weaknesses.. it is fear of being rejected, fear of losing respect, fear of not being appreciated the way they are... screens are the perfect place to hide and remain safe, feeding the illusions instead of nurturing what is real.

Sometime you are able to be there and hold them and they do not die alone

In truth, having that would mean I have achieved something in my life, either to hold someone's hand or to have someone to hold mine when the day comes.

And to think, Orson Welles had Rita Hayworth and partner, Delores Del Rio...but words/phrases resonate.

I consider my fortunate.

The first time I read this, it had resonated with my whole being. Glad you felt it too.

Actually, Orson is (was!) wrong. We are individuals and experience the world from our own unique perspectives, but that is not to say we are alone. Many of us have the comfort of family - either that we were born into, or that we create. Many are lucky enough to find a "soul mate" with whom theycan share life's adventures and trials and surely, only but the saddest bastards can name one or two very close friends and a supporting cast of acquaintances. And, increasingly, these days digital technology is there, as the French would say, "pour brisser la solitude".

This time I shall disagree as I think Orson was right here. No matter of our family members, friends, or just acquaintances, we share our lives, good and/or bad days, going through your deepest, darkest or brightest - you need to do alone, when you remain alone, with your own self...
