What do you do with your loneliness?

One of the results of the massive invasion of privacy so character istic of these technological times is the increasing fear of being alone.

Loneliness is of many kinds

There is the loneliness of a great bitterness when the pain is so great that any contact with others threatens to open old wounds and awaken old frenzies

There is the loneliness of the broken heart and the dead friendship, when what was full of promise and fulfillment lost it's way in a fog of misunderstanding, anxiety and fear.

There is a loneliness who have absorbed so much violence that all hurt has died, leaving only the charred remainder of a lost awareness.

There is the loneliness of the shy and retiring where timidity stands guard against all encounters and the will to relate to others is stilled.

There is the loneliness of despair , the exhaustion of spirit ,leaving no strength to try again, the promise of a second wind can find no backing.

There is the loneliness of death when a man silently listens, one by one, to the closing of all doors, and all that remains is the naked life, stripped of everything that shields, protects, and insulates.

But here is the loneliness in another key.
There is the loneliness of the truth seeker whose search swings him out beyond all frontiers and all boundaries until there are bursts a moment of utter understanding and He knows beyond all doubt, all contradictions.

There is the loneliness of the moment of integrity when the declaration of the self is demanded and the commitment gives no corner to shams, pretense, or lying.

There is the loneliness in the moment of creation when the new comes into being, trembles, then steadies and finds its way.

There is the loneliness of those who walk with God until the path takes them out beyond all creeds and all faiths and they know the wholeness of communion and the bliss of understanding

Loneliness is of many kinds
