" no it doesnt, and like a cloud it will pass. there is a giant tree near a nursing home that i visit. this tree is so huge that to stand near it you can literally feel its hug. the energy and life holds you and suddenly you forget that there is a "you" that is experiencing this energy of loneliness.

go into the lonliness and see what gifts it may offer you? honer its appearance :) "

" No life doesn't have to be so lonely.

I spend most of my time alone. Why you may ask. Because I don't know many people here in Baltimore. I use to have two jobs so that didn't leave much time for meeting people.

Why I don't try to make new friends? Because if they say lets go shopping. I can't walk a lot and I haven't any money to spend. If they say lets stop for a drink I can't drink because of the meds. I take. Let go out to eat. again I have no money to pay my share.

How about meeting a nice new guy. I can't have sex so after they find that out they will ether be pissed at me or no longer care to get to know me any better.
That's my reason for not having friends but I have gotten to know a lot of people that do call me.

So sometimes we are the ones who keep ourselves lonely. That is what I have been doing for the pass year. Making excuses. As to why I have no friends. "
