Greetings, fellow Hivers! This is my first post after being away from Hive because of my son's demise.
- Loneliness
It's lonely in life when all I have to look forward to is storms to come and those around me resemble flimsy cords in the rain. When I'm left with nothing to grip onto or an arm around my shoulders, the world feels chilly and devoid of warmth, gradually eroding my spirit.
A person suffering from loneliness requires the assistance of an empathetic buddy or family. You may feel more mentally healthy as a result of this. It helps you recollect what was missing and offers solace from the pain of loss. It's an opportunity to cleanse, reassess what helps and what doesn't, make fresh decisions, and let people know what your boundaries as well as choices are. In contrast to popular belief, loneliness is a real feeling or experience. You're lonely if you miss something as common as a teddy bear or someone you once held dear.
A low level of spirit, which simply presses into unrelenting suffering, is loneliness. It takes away something of the inner light and replaces it with the gloom that looms over every moment, killing a bit each day. It is the source of the new stress that causes breathing difficulties and the fuel for sleepless nights. I take a deep breath and prepare to burst as the pang grows. I want to throw a fit, beat my fists like a child, and scream on the ground. I want to communicate it, but I don't want to say things or use phrases that I don't mean to. I develop coping mechanisms gradually but steadily.
Connectivity is most appealing to me since emotions are an integral part of who I am. On stormy days, I must locate a safe spot to sit and concentrate; otherwise, I will not be motivated. Similarly, impulse control is recovering strength. I have to combat loneliness and lead a normal life since, no matter how hard I try, it will ultimately emerge and frighten me. While loneliness is acceptable, dwelling on unpleasant aspects of myself is not. It attempts to absorb every facet of my existence, both detrimental and unfit until all that exists is too enticing for the human shell to sense pain. I was born to live in communities with interpersonal relationships for my entire life, to be adored and nursed, and I do the same for the rest of you.
A friend gave me some wise counsel: I will succeed if I embrace my loneliness, give myself permission to experience my grief to the fullest and gather the courage to go forward in the face of it. It's okay that I will soon be alone myself.
Life is full of both happiness and loneliness. Whether or not I agree with it, I have the right to pursue any sort of happiness since I am a human being. I understand that happiness is the dominant emotion, and gaining happiness is what matters most.
Thank you for swinging by and checking out the post. Catch you on my next blog.
Namaste,
