INTROSPECTION - loneliness is NOT your friend! Nor your way to go, unless you're introspective

When things go bad in one's life the first impulse is to separate from the pain. A bad impression gives you the idea that the pain is done by the people around, so one will automatically seek to separate themselves from the people around, forgetting that we are social beings. Not to forget that this society also has an agenda to keep you separated in the name of technology.

Loneliness can be a guide further down inside, but calling it a friend shows attachment issues, and therefore expectation issues. :)
