When I served in the Army and was dropped off by a C131 in Osan, Korea, that was a time in my life when I truly experienced loneliness. I knew absolutely no one, nor was I familiar with any place in that country. My first day of driving truck also stands out to me as a very lonely day in my life. I was assigned a truck, had it ready to go, and received my first dispatch. I was out on my own, and what I once viewed as glamorous was now very scary and very lonely. What was I to do? And remember, we didn’t have cell phones then. What do you do when you are feeling lonely? Whether you’ve been driving for twenty plus years or just starting out, there will be times of loneliness.
