I often feel really quite lonely when I’m in cities. I’ve most often felt isolated when I’m at events which are meant to be fun, like parties or social gatherings. Somehow, when people are gathered together, and if I’m the outsider to the group, I’ll feel so much more isolated than if I’d stayed in and on my own. I wish nothing more when I’m at these occasions to be cuddled on my sofa with my dogs, back in my happy place. Perhaps this is why I like living in the countryside so much? Because when I’m in nature I never feel lonely. When I’m walking I’m surrounded by wonderful wildlife just to enjoy on its on terms.
