Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.       Mother Teresa

Be good and you will be lonely.    Mark Twain

No man is an Island entire of it self; every man is a peace of the Continent, a part of the Maine; if a Clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a Promontories were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or thane own were. Any man's death diminishes me because I am involved in Mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.        John Donne

Loneliness

Is
An island
In
The middle
Of A sea of people

Loneliness is part of being human.
It reminds us that we are not
complete in ourselves.
