alone in the crowd

Alone, lonely people talk to themselves. In company, they often continue.
—Mason Cooley

I think I'm becoming a bit reclusive. It's not that I'm hiding; I'm just not actively looking to be found.

Maybe it's the aftereffects of the trip. I spent so much time away. And so much of that time was with unknown face after unknown face. I was around others almost nonstop; yet, I was alone.

But I'll work myself out of this funk soon. I'm too curious about everyone else's lives to stay away for long.

We’re born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we’re not alone.
—Orson Welles
