I know loneliness consumes you sometimes. I know you want to reach out, to call anyone, to be hugged, to feel less alone, and I know how painful it is when you feel like it's just you. but it won't always be like this. It won't always be this painful and isolating to live. There are so many people who will love you, who will drive you home, who will laugh at your jokes, and who will listen to you ramble about the things you love. i promise. Please hang in there. Loneliness fades, and you will feel the warmth of connection again.
