How to use "Pining" in context?
Pining is a term used to describe a feeling of yearning or loneliness. It can be an individual feeling or it can be a general feeling shared by a group of people. Often, people feel pining when they are missing something they once had and they are hopeful that they will one day be able to recapture that feeling. While it is often an unhappy state, pining allows people to sort through their emotions and to come to terms with the things they may be missing.
