on loneliness in new york by aaron edwards

"What are your thoughts on the idea of loneliness in New York?


For me, maybe it’s pride, maybe its ego, maybe it’s fear. I have shame, not guilt, ‘cause shame is: “I’m sorry for who I am.” Guilt is: “I’m sorry for what I did.” There are those times that I’ve had shame about who I am and I don’t feel that I can relate to another person, because I’m not happy with who I am or where I’m at or what I’m doing. That happened to me a lot, when I first moved to New York in my late 20s. I was trying to forget who the fuck I was."
