Feeling alone are two words that may be difficult to define because loneliness, the state of being alone can be something intangible that you can not describe because it hurts too much! Loneliness can be described in different ways, according to a UCLA study which states that people can often feel a lack of companionship and feel left out. Sitting down with Ben Higgins, who was on the 20th season of ABC's The Bachelor and who has since written an incredible book, was a memorable and amazing experience for Alexandra and I! 

Ben's book Alone in Plain Sight is definitely a great read! We blew through the pages and felt empowered by his words, wisdom, and insight into a world of loneliness that he had endured as a child which followed him into his adulthood. Often, we do not see the struggle others have with being alone because they often wear "masks" so that their pain and suffering remain hidden. Thank you Ben for being so public wth your innermost thoughts, undoubtedly you have a gift to touch many with your kind-heartedness, genuinity, and being your "plain", remarkable self!
