  • Looking Back: The Lessons of Loneliness

    Looking Back: The Lessons of Loneliness
    2022/02/25

    We are living in lonely times, but the human conditions make us wonder, are we alone in our loneliness? 

    And that answer is clear. 


    Somewhere, someone else is taking off for the unknown, moving to small towns or hitting the road to start a new life.

    We can understand loneliness when we peer up into the sky or see celebrities doing ordinary things, when we laugh at comedians and still feel sad because we recognize their loneliness. 


    And we may not be hermit crabs or whales in the ocean or rare birds or lone wolves, but the way animals behave tells us something about loneliness and isolation. There’s solace in discovering we all need a shell and we are allowed to grow out of that shell, or we need to be apart from others like lone wolves. 


    We can see it in clouds or in comics, read it in words and feel loneliness in our silence, in remembering and in those times when we can’t sleep or want to talk to someone else sitting on a bench.


    Those are the lessons in loneliness that come from understanding the way we see ourselves and the world around us as we wrap up with the final episode of this season.

  • Park Your Loneliness: Benches Are Made For Two

    Park Your Loneliness: Benches Are Made For Two
    2022/02/18

    Benches are places in public spaces where people can sit by themselves. They are special because they’re not just a place to sit, 

    they’re spots available to anyone and that availability turns benches into opportunities for connections.


    Benches are bridges between those eager to chat, and those wanting to just listen. 


    When we sit on a bench, we’re indicating we’re part of a world that maybe we feel too lonely or afraid to fully participate in.

    Benches give us an opportunity to be engaged in our surroundings whether it's observing from the side or opening up a chance for conversation.
