Dear Yazdy: I just learnt I have been typing your name wrong... transposing z and d ... Yes ... alone yes... but never lonely.. when your conscious is clear, have many hobbies and family and friends (they may be away, but the strength of the relationship remains with you, always) and love of nature... and love for your chosen vocation... be a little spiritual, where you can talk to god without intermediaries... and add ability to yak yak with anybody...
what more does one need.. I called those folks..not because I was lonely.. but I like human contacts ... have founded several Indian associations in towns I was in, and helped some ashrams to come up... no time for lonliness.... yes .. as you say.. there are long walks... thats where the best ideas come in..
