[QUOTE="Malika, post: 491689, member: 11227"] Ah well... loneliness and unhappiness are states of mind, really. They don't arise because of having or not having friends, lovers, external conditions. Having lots of money might make a slight difference. I JEST :) That sounds like a cliche but it is true. I suppose friends, distractions, etc, would cover up those feelings so one didn't have to face them. In fact I do have quite a lot of friends here (in the nearby town, where I used to have a vacation flat before buying a house in the village here) but what I do miss is Buddhist community. This is really the most important thing to me and yet I am not in regular external contact with it. So to have that would, yes, make a difference to me. [/QUOTE]
