Once again, we are in the season of love! This time last year, on Valentine’s Day, the business of love blossomed. It was in the air and in the shops and in the traffic! Corona was only in the papers and in international news then. We celebrated love uninhibited by the fear of the virus….
There are times in life when we feel so alone, as if we have no one to care for us or look after us. Not because the people don’t exist, but more because at that particular time, we feel like they are far from us and cannot meet the particular need for affection, a listening ear or a warm hug. There are times when I feel like I have over-used the people around me and I just don’t want to bother them. Sometimes it’s because the issue bothering me cannot be discussed freely and I feel scared to open up to people. Whatever the cause, the fact is that at those times, loneliness creeps in quietly and strongly. With no one to turn to for help, what do we do?
