Oh how lonely it is when you have no friends no family to care for you, no children running around the house and your mother and father are dead. "Is this the way my life has turned out to be? I am a lonely old man with no one to care for me. I never had any children, but oh how desperately I wanted to be saved from this life of solitude"...but wait, I am only dreaming. My mother and father are still alive, I'm an active person in my society, I have religion, not the kind that leaves you feeling empty on Sunday but the real kind that makes you feel like you can almost touch the hand of God. Oh there is that word, I said it God. It'd kind of neat, I'll say it again..no I think I'll just leave that word for my special times with Him. Yes I refer to God in the masculine, but that is not what wetting your noodle is all about.
Let me explain.
I started off this blog by saying how lonely it is to be alone. True it can be lonely. We find ourselves doing things that we would do if people where around and then we end up feeling guilty for trying to be happy with ourselves.
This can be a bad idea. I don't have kids, but if you do and you are feeling lonely right now, try not to think of the kids not being with you right now. It's fall, my favorite season, the leaves the smell, something romantic about fall, your kids have just started school again and you are wondering what to do with your time. I'm not doctor Phil, but I think I have discovered a few ways to beat this thing we call loneliness. First get a good book, slam it on your coffee table and say to yourself, when it is cold out side, when I start feeling the dread of those little white things falling from the sky, I will pick up my book, throw my computer to the self and be with myself in peace...
I know. How do you do that?
Like I said, I'm no doctor Phil, but I have found a few answers to feeling alone. Curl up into a ball and start repeating "I am not alone...I am not alone...we are never alone.." This may just conjure up feelings that you will always be alone, so when the phone rings or someone does come home you can hit yourself over the head, and say "there are only how many months left till Christmas....good grief." Really I feel your pain.
There is no easy solutions or steps to comforting yourself, but that is why we were no put on planet earth alone. You know that book you put on your coffee table, why not read it.
This is mike.
