A bit sad

As long as I can remember I loved being out alone in the woods. With noone else around I could give my feelings full reign and allow the beauty around me to warp me into a euphoric almost trance like state.
Recently though I became trapped in a self conscious cul de sac. I can't feel connected with nature because I've come to see this aspect of myself as preventing me from being connected to the people I love and all the drama that goes with it.
I'd welcome any comments or advice folks out there may have on this issue as I don't feel I can't trust my thinking. Can we be truly connected to our loved ones without partaking in the drama? Can we allow ourselves to be swept along by our feelings and still truly "be there" for our friends?
