When We Feel Alone

Loneliness

In this world we live in, it sometimes gets lonely especially when we are left by ourselves suddenly.  It can be rather hard to get adjusted to being alone and feeling lonely When We Are Left Alone.  It brings quietness to our life that we just aren't accustom to and and we can't get over that empty feeling. People can be all around us and we are still lonely, because we miss the ones that we were close to and love. We simply miss the constant companionship, hustle and noise of those that have been near for so long.  A child who has left to start their own life; an estranged husband or whomever it was that we had grown accustom to being near us daily.  Sometimes this loneliness canturn into depression and that is never good. It is never easy when we have to face a life of being by ourselves, unless we have experienced it before in some way. 

There is a lot to say about God, His blessings, His love and the fact that actually we are never alone; He is there.  Of course if you believe He is.  We see a lot of questions about God and His teachings. It is a time in our history that people are looking for something they do not have; yet it is so near. There seems to be a need and people are searching for something strong to hold on to, comfort, peace and contentment. It is as though a lot of the population is lonely and confused about so many things, especially with the situation American is in. I do not know everything but one thing I do know is that we have a Savior to take our problems to and He will help us if we ask.

Sometimes we can belonelyin a crowd if we loose the excitement (we think) we need in our current relationship. Instead of feeling alone, what we can do is boost the excitement our-self and not wait on someone else to do it. We have to make our excitement sometimes to get our mind off of the negative that we face in daily life. Also, we think we are lonely when we are really just needing to rest our weary body, mind and soul. We get all worried about our life and stay so busy that we do not take the time to renew our spirit and our joy. We must find that joy in our life and soul that brings contentment.

If we are to live a full life we must find contentment and joy to do whatever we have to do to alleviate the loneliness. Get a dog, a cat, find a new friend or simply pray. Mediation and prayer can take our burdens away, if we have faith that there is a Higher Power and He can help us rid ourselves of Feeling Lonely.

your hub sums up well the feeling that seems to be as a thread throughout all the diverseness of humanity. We need to know a savior now, we need a spirit of love to comfort us and lead us to unity of spirit

Hi - we think in many of the same ways about loneliness - I agree that a new friend, whether animal or human is a great idea and agree with all your suggestions. So many great writers have written about loneliness. I was surprised about it being contagious, don't know why, because it is obvious to me now! blessings to you.

If I'm not mistaken, more often than not, we usually look through the surface by becoming self-centered…by feeling abandoned…I should understand that because it may also be my personal sentiments when I get old. But if we will look into the basic knowledge of existence, we are just actually separated physically with our love ones for the mere fact that they have their own lives to live or as you said…”death”. These are just some of the factors that we must admit…where it happens…when it happens…that we don’t know but we are called to adhere to that reality. Yet, we must be happy as well because that even so, we are spiritually connected with them for God does not allow his flock be separated with each other. While on earth, we have to create our own way of happiness which gives glory to God. There are a lot of communities out there which may feed our spiritual needs to God. Embrace them so as to experience real happiness….we must look and find….and be delighted.
