loneliness

i got this off the show that i'm currently watching, this particular phrase which the guy said made me pause and i realise i really liked the way he expressed himself...


"在遇上你之前，我都是我行我素...

在遇上你之候，我开始懂得什么叫孤单...

这是种好的变化，还是种怀的变化，我已经再也分不清..."


he never realised what was missing until he met her. what if he never did?


is emptiness/loneliness a state of mind?
