Same here.

If it means anything, you seem like a kind, decent person, someone who cherishes others and treats them with respect. That right there makes you someone of great worth, because like Ronnie James Dio once wrote, "The world is full of Kings and Queens who will blind your eyes and steal your dreams."

Good people-the kinds of people who appreciate others and treat others the way they would want to be treated-are pretty rare. That's why you can't take them for granted when you find them-just make sure you don't hold onto them too tightly.

As far as being alone goes..there's a difference between being alone, and being lonely. Being alone can be a good thing. Solitude can mean being away from stressful things, it can mean space away from people and things that cause you stress. Most of all, without solitude we wouldn't really be able to appreciate feeling needed by and needing others.

Being lonely...that's what really sucks. You're not alone in feeling that, I feel it a lot, too. It's actually the root of a lot of my problems. I don't know if I really have an answer for that one. It all comes down to getting to know yourself and doing your best to appreciate yourself and the kind of person you are. It's ok to fall in love with your own art, your own personal way of expressing yourself. It's ok to find joy in the things you imagine and create.

Those are the things that keep us company and are our way of taking something within us that is of great value and sharing it with the world.

Speaking for myself, I feel a little less lonely knowing that maybe something I've done that has made me happy might eventually make someone else happy, too. I don't base my own sense of self validation on it or think that it makes me this oh so wonderful person...yet I don't think it makes me a bad person, either.

At any rate, I hope I haven't been too forward in posting this. I hope you eventually feel better, Fulpelt.

If you were like everyone else, you wouldn't be you! I know what you mean, though, but having depression doesn't make you any less worthy of a person. If you aren't already, I would suggest seeing a therapist and/or psychologist; I likely owe my life to their help.

You deserve that kind of friendship. *squishes your face* I'm sure you'll find it. ^^
