To be lonely is to want others to bond with, and finding none.
To be alone is to separate willingly from others.

But, it is not good to always be alone.

OhΒ god, I couldn't agree more. Not only is it boring, but you're right, it's lonely.

So true!

The difference is really huge...unfortunately, a lot of people don't get it. Nevertheless, the difference is obvious for me.

By the way, Chekhov once said that brevity is the sister of talent, and this short phrase is all about it
Brilliant point!

^^ Indeed.

Some don't. But a lot of people seem to. XD

Brevity is the sister of talent? I like that very much.

Thank you.

I am so glad you were able to express this concept in such an elegant yet simple manner. As I've grown older, I have realized that difference. Loneliness is often cripplingΒ for we are made forΒ connection and affirmation. However,Β being alone is actually freeing once you get to the place where you are comfortable and confident of yourself and ableΒ to enjoy those still, fleeting moments ofΒ your life how you without having to rely or seek anyone's approval, taking the amount of time needed to engage in whatever suits your interest. Thank you, I think this was really nice
