Language has created the word ‘loneliness’ to express the pain of being alone.
And it has created the word ‘solitude’ to express the glory of being alone.

Yes, it’s a fine line, isn’t it? But being thankful in whatever state I am in is the secret to happiness I think.

Also true. I love my solitude but when I have too much time by myself, I still can get lonely! Have not had the chance to feel lonely in a very long time though – I kind of miss it! And I really miss solitude!
