My Definition of Loneliness

Loneliness. As a society, we have accepted loneliness to be a bad thing, but that isn’t always the case. In my almost 22 years of life, I have experienced loneliness on more than one occasion. In those moments that I have felt truly alone, I grew. In the terms loneliness, we tend to think that it means that you are completely alone. I think that people don’t realize that often when someone is feeling lonely they have others around them. Loneliness is not defined by one definition out of a dictionary. It is defined by each person who experiences it. It is defined by the way that each person experiences it. This is my definition of loneliness.
