Loneliness is a very heavy word – when you hear somebody telling you ” I am so lonely” , right away it stirs up some thoughts that you would like to help this person, that you would like to know why she is lonely, where is her family – is she going through some very important medical problems her or somebody that is dear to her ?
Now, in the world that we are living in, a lot of people are living alone, they eat alone, they go to work , come back to their apartment very much alone – and most of the time, these persons won’t see or talk to somebody they know for days, and sometimes months. This problem is world-wide and it will only get worse.
I think that people are getting more suspicious – they keep to themselves not wanting to share their happiness or sorrow with somebody – people are losing their jobs so the money is scarce – so they tend to keep to themselves, trying to survive during these difficult periods. Also we can’t forget that a lot of people divorce for a number of reasons, sometimes not with good reasons. And so in the end, they are often alone not wanting to meet somebody or simply because they have been treated badly and they don’t want to be with just anybody for the time being.
So in the end, the best way as to not to be lonely, when this cloud comes over our heads, we simply should head out, try to meet somebody that you know for coffee, go to a movie, or simply get out of the house and see something else other that the inside of your home. Another good thought is to think that you are in good health, and that there are a lot of people around you that are either sick, bedridden or that simply , they cannot go out or do what they would like to do. So , in the end try to be thankful for what you have , and whenever these black thoughts arrive, you push them away.
