Have you ever considered how many living things there are on earth? Cleo asked. People. Animals. Birds. Fish. Trees. It makes you wonder how anyone could feel lonely. Yet humans do. It's a shame.She looked at the sky, now a deep shade of purple. We fear loneliness, Annie, but loneliness itself does not exist. It has no form. It is merely a shadow that falls over us. And just as shadows die when light changes, that sad feeling can depart once we see the truth.
In a conversation about the vastness of life on Earth, Cleo reflects on the abundance of humans, animals, and plants, pondering how loneliness can still affect people despite this diversity. She expresses her disappointment that loneliness exists among such a rich tapestry of living beings.
Cleo further shares her perspective on loneliness, suggesting that it is not a real entity but rather a transient feeling, like a shadow that can lift with a change in perception. According to her, understanding the truth can alleviate this sadness, much like how light dispels darkness.
