I live in an urban area and often walk around the neighborhood when I need a break from the home office/studio. I run into people and often have short but meaningful conversations, sometimes this leads to grabbing a coffee from the corner cafe or walking together until a good parting spot while we continue our conversation.
You are not alone in this. Very common and doesn’t just cover older population, younger people experience loneliness more and more. The solution… there isn’t one as such, one foot in front of the other and filling your days with doing what you love. That’s life essentially
Oh yes Joe, I totally empathise. I've often found friendships hard and now, after chronic illness and therefore leaving normal employment I'm also feeling the loneliness. Hope you find some of your people.

When you start talking to the plants you know you have problems!
Oh I've been talking to them for years!
As a home worker, this had such resonance. Thank you for such a touching piece.
Thank you!
I feel this. Thanks.
