Odd that many of us come on here becase we feel lonely, but many of us like depreesing music and also show symptoms of depression.

Is lonlyness caused by depression rhatern than depression caused by lnliness?

Are we the architects of our own lonliness?

 

[Reggie Jected]

I have only just found this piece. I always wondered who it was and I remember my late gran playing it on her record player years and years ago. I heard it on an advert last night and they said composers name so I found this on youtube. I makes me feel relaxed but also kind of sad because it reminds me of my gran.
