There was a time at my lowest, I had nothing and felt I was nobody. I called suicide hotline and just talked. The person on the other side wasn't qualified to offer any advice, she made that clear in the beginning, she was just there to listen. That's all it took, was for someone to listen, I've been good every since. Except for now, (the world the way it is) their are times, but I'm in a much better position, so I can just let it go and get over it. That was about 12 years ago.

Yeh, this site is great. It's helped me to unload and understand and question.

It's nice when people listen. Today, most people are all self-absorbed. I think to myself a lot though, because theres no one to really talk to.

For some reason I was thinking today how lonely we could be if things were different, remembering some stupid movie I watched about the end of civilization.

We are alone, but not as alone as we could be, we're pretty lucky.

It is sights like this that help.

I think I'm pretty smart, then somebody says something, and I listen, and now I am even smarter.

So true.
But the thing is, when someone feels lonely, say like, you had a big fight with a very close friend and you felt hurt, and you didn't have anyone to talk to for a while, compared to a kid who was left on the street by their parents, could feel the same amount of pain even if it seems like the first wasn't much of a big deal.

But yeh, things could be worse.
