How is it that some celebrities, whom the average person would believe to have all the popularity a human being could want, still admit to feeling lonely?

And therefore we must seek dialogue in this networked world. We must ask which voice was actually attempting to make itself heard and saw no other possibility of gaining a hearing. To that extent, for a while this also represented a forced opening of a cosmopolitan view. ↗
