Perspective.

I recently read about the definition of feeling lonely vs. feeling alone. One is a state of mind, the other is a state of being. I found this observation really interesting, that and how feeling alone is apparently seen in a positive light, because it somehow implies being comfortable with oneself. I was inclined to list myself in the second category at first, but I guess I am in both? I truly enjoy my own company, yet from time to time a feeling of loneliness creeps in. Perhaps it's the result of a diet change, I get rather blue when I try to control my food. Or maybe it's the weird way in which INFPs function; we love people but yet they exhaust us after a while.
