Are love and friendships illusions, or life's purpose?
Having tuned into the Psychologies theme of friendship in recent weeks, I came across a quote from Orson Welles, which is both profound and thought provoking.
'We're born alone, we live alone, and we die alone. Only through our love and friendships can we create the illusion for the moment, that we're not alone'
I like the quote, but take issue with the word illusion. I will explain why.
