Loneliness

 The feeling of loneliness, when accompanied by sadness, is not something healthy.

Sadness can come from many factors, such as not having in your life all that you wanted — or the way you wanted it.

But we cannot have everything.
What we can have is self-awareness, morality, inner calm, and peace.

These are more valuable than a nice house or an expensive car, for example.

Now, if loneliness is wide and deep, and draws in sadness — even depression in some cases — it does not come from external causes.

It comes purely from the thoughts we make, how we see the world and those around us, and, of course, whether we truly have love and respect for ourselves.

Whether we tell ourselves the truth — and not comforting excuses that keep us away from our being, our soul.

Everything begins somewhere.
All the choices of an entire life are right in front of us.
Whatever we chose, whatever we did, said, gave — these will bring the corresponding cost, the result.

Loneliness does not harm a person.
After all, everyone is alone deep down.
And they are alone because they live in a world they built from wounds, illusions, and ignorance.

Everyone searches for something that fits their standards and measurements.
Something to complete them.
But they forget they are already whole.

If you don’t love yourself above all, you will never truly love anyone else.
Why? Because self-love and respect say a lot. They reveal a lot.

But no one will ask you, at the start of a relationship, whether you love and respect yourself.
They will focus on your image, your manners — on appearances — and whether your tastes match.

That kind of attitude from people is a form of loneliness.
Because you never receive what you long for, what you expect from someone.
You built an image — and when you finally decided to look into the depth of their soul, which you should’ve done from the start, you saw something else.
Something that shattered your image.

And when the image collapses, the inside of a person collapses with it.
If you give and expect something in return, then you cannot call that love.

That’s exactly how souls are pushed aside — and egos take their place.
A struggle that leads nowhere.
As long as people speak through their ego, it only grows stronger — while the soul stands to the side, just watching a vicious cycle with no way out.

The ultimate loneliness — with the soul absent.
