How can people discover creativity in their loneliness?
4:20:49 2024-08-21 608

Ultimately, loneliness isn’t something we choose, it chooses us. That’s one way it differs with solitude, which is something we choose. Loneliness can come upon us, but we don’t have to be powerless about it. If loneliness is a story we tell ourselves, we might actively revise that narrative or, like Hurston, gather together tales, experiences, and anecdotes in order to weave new ones, ones that give us a space to live our lives in.

Loneliness is often associated with shame and a real fear about what it implies about us. What This Exquisite Loneliness looks at is how certain thinkers, writers, and artists saw their loneliness and used it as an engine to reach out to others and to create new ideas, and new forms of expression. It might not resolve the loneliness but it can be that others feel solace, comfort, and a recognition of fellow feelings by way of the things that came out of that loneliness. Central to my own thinking is the question “What can we make out of loneliness?” is a legitimate response to “What can we do about loneliness?”
