Alone?



a·lone

  

[uh-lohn]  Show IPA
 
–adjective (used predicatively)

1. separate, apart, or isolated from others: I want to be alone.


So many of us spend most of our time this way. We are held in our private worlds by the circumstances held within our life. You understand this feeling, this predicament. At times its ... OK. In other times we would only hope someone would understand and come into our alone-ness.

This is not an isolation kept to various ages of adults, many teens, and young children know this personally in their life. Gender nor demographic is not affected. Why?

Here's my thoughts - life is meant to be shared. Most kids grow up not learning how to share, and as adults these adults become self-centered - as they were raised. So? What do you do ... when you are still alone and caught in this circumstance?

Maybe here's a suggestion - it's not all about me! Life is beyond what I see or think. It's about looking around you, seeing who else is ALONE, and trying your best to comfort them.

If we were honest, we DON'T want to be alone (even if we say, "I want to be alone".) We really are saying, "I wan't to be understood, appreciated, recognized, etc ... ".

So, there it is - God did not intend Man to be alone (goes for women as well). So - reach out of your own circumstance and see life from someone else's perspective. Help someone else not be ALONE.

Do it!
