The Simplest and Most Rewarding Cure for Loneliness

Are you lonely? Do you crave companionship? Are you perfectly content in your relationships?

“If you go deeper and deeper into your own heart, you’ll be living in a world with less fear, isolation and loneliness.” ~Sharon Salzberg

Todays fast paced world leaves all of us wanting more. By the time your day ends, you are exhausted and crave a certain familiar warmth. If only to just sit and watch TV with or have dinner with. Failing to have this, there are many who have gone into a state of self prescribed depression. A state of loneliness.

Now who really likes to be lonely?

Loneliness is very very over rated. The need for companionship is a good thing. It makes you only human. But, what if you are alone, by circumstance? Will you stop living as a result of it?

You cant do that! You have to live and live very well at that too! With constant reminders or feelings of loneliness, your productivity and your sanity both go for a toss.

So what is the alternative?

The Simplest and Most Rewarding Cure for Loneliness

Think of your life from birth. The very first time a baby comes into this world. This little baby has come into this world alone. When your life ends it will end alone. Your life is not going to end with another group who are going to come with you to keep you company in that journey. This journey from the birth to death to the afterlife, you have to go at it alone. Just you! Only You!

Why not make YOU your own best friend?

“If you learn to really sit with loneliness and embrace it for the gift that it is…an opportunity to get to know YOU, to learn how strong you really are, to depend on no one but YOU for your happiness…you will realize that a little loneliness goes a LONG way in creating a richer, deeper, more vibrant and colorful YOU.” ~ Mandy Hale
