The Cure for Loneliness

People are lonely.

There's not a better way to say it or put it.

You can take a look around a crowded room and see it.

The one girl whose excluded from her group of three.

The one boy, third wheeling on his friends date.

The single mother watching her children running around, longing for them to come back and stay by her side.

It's everywhere.

Some not as obvious as others but still present.

Everyone can feel they're missing something.

They're missing 'it'.

You know?

The 'it'.

"If I had 'it' my life would be so much better."

The thing is, you have to be willing to find 'it'.

Most people would go they're entire lives never finding they're 'it'.

Some too scared of the change it may bring.

Others, scared that 'it' isn't what they want it to be.

The one thing we all have in common though is that nagging feeling at three o' clock in the morning. We're missing something and it hits us hard, the 'it' we never found. Little to none know what they're 'it' is, but they do know they're missing it bad.

For Evelyn, it was the same.

Her only difference?

She was willing to find 'it'.
