It's impossible to dismiss the varying level of loneliness that comes from witnessing the death of a loved one. But... in a somewhat ironic sense, I believe that loneliness helps fuel personal growth and emotional maturity. It helps us understand the immeasurable importance of interpersonal relationships.

wow. this hits home for me. i completely understand what you mean. after witnessing my own personal struggles, the loneliness definitely fuels both personal growth and emotional maturity. i really value conversation these days. i am grateful when someone wants to sit down and talk about life, and not talk at me. i love when someone is actually present. i value people's time more than ever.
