  1. 외로움은 홀로 있지 못할 때 찾아온다

    AI summary
    • 혼자 있어서가 아니라 홀로 서지 못할 때 외로움이 깊어진다.
    • 결혼해도 외로울 수 있으며, 그 외로움이 진짜 외로움이다.
    • 인간은 타인을 소유할 수 없고 한순간을 함께할 뿐임을 받아들여야 한다.
    • 서로를 완전히 이해할 수 없음을 정상으로 받아들이면 세상이 밝아진다.
    • 외로움에는 반대말이 없으니 해결되는 것이 아니라 표현의 재료로 삼는다.


The reason we feel lonely is not that we are alone, but that we cannot stand alone.
Only when you finally stand alone do you realize: a human being cannot possess anyone. We only share certain fleeting moments with someone.


I cannot fully understand another person. And the other person cannot fully understand me. But if you think this is wrong, you’re bound to feel terribly lonely. Even so, if there is someone who, though imperfectly, understands you deeply, the world looks so much brighter.


Did you know there’s no antonym for loneliness? Because I express it through song or acting, rather than disliking it, it becomes good material—in expression.
