When we finished reading the poem, we also came up with some essential question. Can happiness fulfil the loneliness? This is what we want to ask to you guys. what can we do to take off loneliness? some happiness can i think but It does not stay for long. In my opinion loneliness is always next to us.

I guess happiness can shake the feeling of loneliness alone. If you're just happy enough with your life, i don't think you will feel the necessity to have someone next to you to share the happiness. If a person takes loneliness seriously, the person wouldnt feel happy in the first place. So i think in order for someone to feel happy and not be lonely at the same time, the person has to have a charactristic that does not require anybody else in their lives

Happiness cannot fulfill one's loneliness simply because they are not the opposite ideas. One can be both happy and lonely at the same time just like it is possible to be sad and not lonely.

yes! happiness is the direct opposite of loneliness. the type of happiness or the source doesn't really matter. as long as one feels happy, it is enough to cure loneliness. curing loneliness doesn't necessarily have to involve social contact. One can learn to enjoy being alone, which will rid off the lonely feeling

I do not think that happiness fully fulfils loneliness. It might seem like your loneliness is gone because of just little happiness. When you are left alone again, you are going to feel lonely again. I don't think happiness has direct relationship with loneliness.

I think happiness itself cannot be accomplished with loneliness. In other words, not being lonely would be one of the essential keys to achieve complete happiness. It would be irony that a person feel happiness while being lonely.

I think happiness and loneliness are just not related to each other. Sometimes, i'd like to spend time alone, whether i chose to do so or not, i kinda feel happy being in a peaceful and quiet state, on the other hand i kinda feel loneliness being alone.

How does being alone and being around people affect the way we see the world? Can you fully put yourself into the state of being completely alone ?

I think happiness cannot fulfill our loneliness because even though we satisfied with our life there is always some part that we perfectly satisfy. Also people always desire new things so loneliness may derive from those parts. So I think happiness cannot fulfill our loneliness.

I don't think so. Happiness can help people forget for a moment, but person still feel lonely in other way.

It depends how people interpret loneliness, some people enjoy it and some people don't. If to talk in general, i think any signs of happiness can easily shake off loneliness out of any person. It depends more on people hold on to loneliness, some people just prefer to be lonely and it's their choice, nothing can be done to undo it because there is no reason to do so. But for people who are unintentionally lonely, not by their will, any spark of light can break loneliness off.

Some people work really hard, trying forget about their current miseries. They would make themselves purposefully busy to create such time with others. They would do things to preoccupy their minds just to get their minds of of their current sorrows. But this is not a solution as it's only a temporary measure. Happiness won't solve loneliness because you can't be happy i the first place.

No,I personally do not think happiness can fulfill loneliness.I agree with Crystal.I think happiness can be fulfilled at that moment but after time goes by,you will somehow remember the feeling of loneliness.

I don't think happiness can fulfill loneliness. Eventhough you are you can feel loneliness. I think happy can make happy at that time but you can feel loneliness at the time goes by.

I agree that loneliness is always with us and people can be happy when they are alone as well. Happiness is something like a short illusion, but people can continue that small happiness when they are with others.
