Loneliness is never a good thing. But being alone sometimes cleans your people palate. I couldn't get through a week if I didn't have at least two days where I'm seeing no one after work/the gym.
I agree with this on a general level. I feel this way about every "negative" emotion. You need to feel the full spectrum of life to appreciate the good things. I think it's vastly important to have hardships and issues in every aspect of life. >

It's so refreshing to see an opinion that validates negative emotions and hardships as valuable lessons. They have a legitimate place and a time to exist and we should learn to embrace them and grow some wisdom out of them.
