How did I get to this place in my life, where I am so lonely every day yet willing with my whole heart to do it over again and stay?

Does everyone go through this phase, or do only certain people give up the things that are familiar in their lives to move away to somewhere new and start again?

And, if by chance more people than I realize do go through this phase in life, why don't I hear from them?

I hate being lonely alone. There are few things that make the world feel more empty than it does right now.

Don't people in Australia do that and call it going walk-about? Men did it during the depression... they hopped on traincars and because bums and left it all behind.

I think most people go through that phase in life during transition periods. Sometimes it just lasts longer for people. I guess it probably has mostly to do with how you deal with change. Whether or not you are the type of person who goes out and gets in there or if you are the person who hangs in the back and sort of waits and watches for things to happen around you. Hanging in the back certainly seems like the safe route, but unfortunately it comes with those feelings of loneliness I think.
