I've noticed that loneliness gets stronger when we try to face it down, but gets weaker when we simply ignore it.

Summary

This quote suggests that attempting to combat and confront loneliness head-on may actually make it more intense or pronounced. However, if we choose to not give it much attention or importance, loneliness diminishes in its impact. It implies that by focusing on other aspects of life and diverting our attention away from loneliness, its power over us diminishes, allowing for a greater sense of emotional well-being.
