IS loneliness a boon or a curse?

Live me alone! some people shout. It is not good to be alone for longer period and it is not nice to be always with somebody. It is better to be lonely for a couple of hours in a week as you said to review, to meditate. In the meantime, I would like to take off from all nearest and dearest for a while in a week.

I don't think I have ever experiences loneliness becasue I have always tried to keep myself occupied in one way or another. I have been alone many times but it was of my own choosing. Here in Portugal they have a saying (I think there is one similar in English but I'm having a senior moment and it escapes me).....Better by yourself than in bad company. I think we say "Misery loves company" but somehow I like the Portuguese much better.

It depends on the time and mood.

i had often met with loneliness many a time in my life,but most of the times i felt it is good,since it helps us calm our mind and relax,but sometimes very bad i felt.how you have felt it?have u ever met loneliness?do u like it?

Sometimes I enjoy solitude. I wouldn't like it on a continuous basis, but it's nice to have time to myself once in awhile. There's no reason for anyone to be lonely. There are lots of places for people to go to get involved with others.
