Without

What is life without help or company? What is this journey without friends? How... this pilgrimage without people to love and love you? What a misery without any But those to watch and judge your every twitch? How much more profoundly miserable When these people ought to be your family?

That is indeed sad and not as uncommon as it should be.

This one says a lot. If family is causing a family member to feel unloved , it is a very hurtful experience. and if family is lost, it is a very lonely place.

Yes, it is so. This one was from a sad time of family crisis.
