Looking deep into self is realisation. When it happens the individual will feel that his best friend is he himself. It's a reality that the poetess has arrived at by saying " Treat your own self.....as your best friend" .

1 - when i 'Googled' tenebrous (a new word for me) i found it was the name of a 'animal' character in a Harry Potter tale. are you a fan? ? i'm not. also: " literary adjective: tenebrous dark; shadowy or obscure" aren't ALL DEMONS " dark" ? ? ? perhaps i AM my best friend! ! i certainly love myself! ! !

'Treat your own self as your best friend'....... Great advice.... Savita! Other friends will desert us one day or the other. So begin loving oneself more and bring God to our company! This is the best antidote to loneliness that will otherwise poison our soul!

You make a powerful observation....When you treat yourself as an enemy, loneliness becomes the constant companion. A great work, Savita.

So well said, there is nothing so obscure like loneliness in this world, In this universe teeming with billions of stars, wilderness still weighs supreme, this earth teeming with life, loneliness lands an ugly shadow still.
