Someone once told me about solitude versus lonely ... we can choose solitude. I

empathize

feeling/sensation that someone is with me. (I know by norm. it is not rational,

no need to justify that).When I dance at home alone I open my eyes to an

imaginary dance partner. When I read my books the author seems to come and sit

with me (...and argue their points valid to my scepticism...), my phone rings

and someone is on the other end. Imaginary or real, I`m never alone for long. In

fact it must be a choice. Sometimes it feels as though I'm in the body of other

people who I come in contact with. I feel what they feel and look like they

look. I want to sound like them and make lame attempts but refrain mostly. It is

strange/frustrating/interesting how the mind can lead you...

it wasn't a problem for me because I don't often get lonely. That is not what is

meant by emptiness though...it is related to hopelessness I think. I get lost in

it all sometimes.
