A Horrible State of Life

Loneliness is life, energy and desire sapping

And so much more

Loneliness is a complex and usually unpleasant emotional response to isolation

A lack of 'life-affirming” relationships, that we all desire to have

A need for meaningful social connection

Anxious feelings about a lack of connection or communication with other beings

Lack of companionship

Along with sadness

The quality of being unfrequented and remote, isolated

Because friends or company are almost nonexistent

Not surprising, people in committed and lifelong marriages are,often,lonely

Can be gut wrenching

There are those that suffer chronic loneliness

Some even die from it

Research shows that loneliness can have a big effect on the health of your heart

Loneliness has also been described as social pain

A psychological mechanism meant to alert an individual

Of isolation to motivate them to seek social connections.

No one should be lonely or alone

And there is a difference between the two

The problem of being alone and loneliness is discussed

In the Garden of Eden in the Creation Story

And  just to think that with the billions of people on earth

It so hard to find that almost perfect match

Better half, as it were

As we do believe in union, that quality of oneness

Why not, the perfect one?

It is the imperfection of this current world, dear hearts

That prevents everyone from having his perfect mate

And so many other things, as well

It bodes the question,

Is there a perfect world, somewhere, even, in our wildest imagination?

That completes the perfection of life and existence?
