But are you alone when you feel you're alone? There must be a billion insects for every human, surely. Do you think your house is insect free? It isn't.
Sorry if I creeped you out there, but it's true! You're not alone. I know a cricket isn't much of of a conversationalist, but you can't deny they're there.
So are you alone or
are you lonely? Perhaps you’re not really either. “It’s good to be home all
alone!” you declare, your hand absent-mindedly stroking the cat very alive,
very real, very obviously beside you.
“It’s good to be
home alone!” you declare before poking your head out the back door to see what
your dog is barking at.
What are you made
of? Water? Air? Atoms? Is there anywhere you look that you cannot see these
things? Tell me one thing you can touch that has not a single molecule. You can’t.
Not only are you not alone but the things around you are more like you than you
can imagine. When you feel alone, look around. When you feel lonely, remember.
We are all the same, we are all different, we are all on the same organic space
ship circling a star. You are not alone.
