Loneliness: Good or Bad? Feel lonely when you’re not alone?

People think being alone makes you
lonely, but I don’t think that’s true.
Being surrounded by the wrong people
is the loneliest thing in the world.

Alone is having no one else around, being by yourself. Lonely describes a feeling of sadness from isolation or abandonment. One can be alone without feeling lonely. And one could be surrounded by people and yet feel very lonely.

Loneliness does not come
from being alone,
but from being surrounded by people
who can’t understand you. A deep feeling of isolation comes
when you realize that even the person
standing right next to you
is unreachable.
Being alone
does not mean you are lonely,
and being lonely does not mean
you are alone.

Have you ever felt lonely even though you were surrounded by others? Sometimes you can be around family or friends and still feel like you are all alone. You feel empty inside, a feeling of being invisible, being ignored, and or feeling unloved and like no one cares.

No I may not be
physically alone….
But mentally there
is no one in sight….
—— The Minds Journal

Loneliness can be normal, and can be an indicating factor of an underlying disease when feelings become extremely all-consuming and interfere with your daily life. Loneliness is NO fun. It is apparently bad for you. People who are lonely may be a greater risk for some types of inflammatory diseases.

Although loneliness is not considered a mental illness in and of itself, it is, however, strongly linked to mental health issues.

Loneliness is not just a
feeling of being alone, it’s
fear, depression, inferiority,
it’s a collection of negative
emotions building up a
massive wall around you. —— Therightmessages.com

What are some ways to deal with your feelings of loneliness?

  • Face your feelings of loneliness….don’t run away from your feelings….
  • Don’t judge yourself for feeling lonely….no time for a pity party….
  • Figure out how much connection you need and work towards it….Don’t forget you need others….
  • Dismiss your belief that no one understands you….There’s nothing wrong with your feelings….if necessary find someone you can talk to….
  • Reconnect with your original self….connect with love ❤️…..God is love….

Does the Bible say anything about loneliness, feeling alone?

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you, he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Deuteronomy 31:6 NIV (New International Version)

“Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.”

Psalm 25:16 NIV

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

Isaiah 41:10 NIV

A Prayer for Loneliness:

“Heavenly Father, I need your comfort as I am feeling lonely. Help me to remember that you see me even when others don’t. Be with me through this trial I am going through. Help me understand that I am going through this for a reason and that you will see me through this; That I can conquer this because you are with me.”

Life lesson: NEVER GIVE UP

Life Lessons – http://www.invajy.com

What is a life lesson you feel everyone can benefit from? There is an abundance of lessons you go through in life. What we learn from them is up to us. Life lessons are sometimes referred to as valuable experiences. A life lesson is something from which useful knowledge or principles can be learned. Have you ever learned a lesson from your life you wish you could pass on to others? Perhaps, so they will not make the same mistakes, or possibly for them to gain insights from lessons you have learned.

Types of lessons one can learn in life are numerous. Most of our important life lessons we tend to learn the hard way. We often make mistakes, make choices we later regret, but if we learn from them then it becomes valuable. The following is a few examples of the possible lessons we could learn.

  1. Walk your own path…be yourself
  2. Don’t hesitate when you should act…take the risk
  3. Experience what you have learned…
  4. Good things do not come easy…
  5. Never fail to try more…. keep trying
  6. Take care of your health early….
  7. Make every moment count…. Don’t waste it
  8. Live and let live….
Past has no power

One of the lessons I am continually learning comes from the Bible. That is to always trust God.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And he shall direct your paths.”

Proverbs 3:5-6
Proverbs 3:5-6

What does that mean, to trust in the Lord? It basically means that we/I should not depend upon ourselves, on what we/I know, but trust God with all our hearts. We might not know what his plan is, however, it is usually better than any plan we develop ourselves. I need to include God in everything I say and do. In doing so, he helps give me the right words to say or lets me know what the best course of action I should be taking. Our/my mistakes, wrong choices are often made when I leave God out of the planning and don’t trust that He knows everything. His wisdom is far greater than mine.

Other lessons I feel everyone can benefit from are:

  • Never Give Up.…you may struggle, but never quit. Keep trying
  • Stay focused on your dreams, who you want to be
  • Be strong when you are weak, Brave when you are afraid, and Humble when you are victorious.
  • The most valuable relationship one can have is with Jesus Christ.
  • Alway be grateful for the good things in your life.

Thomas Edison stated: “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”

Enjoy living your life. Remember to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love; it is a privilege to be alive. Pass on what you learn to others. Be an inspiration. Have the courage to let go of the past, you cannot change it. You can only change yourself. You cannot change the world, but you can be a small influence in someone else’s life. The world will change by the small ripples we create.

God bless. Trust in the Lord. He will never fail you. I appreciate y’all. Be sure to like, comment, and follow.
