Are you afraid of being alone?..

Do not be afraid of being alone. Because aloneness does not mean loneliness ..There is a feeling of completeness in aloneness..
Loneliness however, is incompleteness.. Loneliness is longing for something to fill up the hole in one's being .. If you truly feel wholeness, then being alone is not something to feel lonely about..
Are you afraid of being alone? ..

Irony is, to feel lonely we need another person in our life..lol. If we don't, we are still fine. Only one that person we have in our life does not give due attention to us, we feel lonely. But why do we give others so much importance at all. God is more permanent.

@Shiva49 .. True...and we also love some more than the others, but unless we maintain things in perspective it can be extremely shocking. Focusing only on one person, I mean...loving parents, children, spouses, grandchildren, siblings, and friends...somehow it balances things...but if a person was to love only one person...it can be very shocking if there is loss, or neglect.

@vandana7 We are social animals, so we need some company.
We should not depend only on another but on collective humanity that represents our creator.
The connection with God is at another level.
For me, our Creator is in His creations, that is everywhere we are not even aware of - siva

Being an only child, I am used to being alone and treasure that time. Not married, no children, only an elderly mother so you could say I am doomed.

No you are not...you can still find somebody...if that is what you like. I am an only child, I am also used to being alone and I also "treasure" that time. I also have an elderly parent who is 83 years old now...losing him does scare me. But I tell me, if he goes he and mom will prepare a nice home for me to land into up there.

@JohnRoberts .. being alone does not make you 'doomed' .. I know a few people who are happy and content with being single with no children .. and I know of some people who are married with children yet they are the most unhappy people ..

I am alone often and when being alone I get taken over by loneliness and emptiness. Not a great feeling.

@lovebuglena Maybe you just need to do something that would make you happy whenever you find yourself alone, that way you won't feel empty .. Emptiness can lead to depression ..

This is accurate. People may want to be alone for some times, but no one wants to be lonely. They are different things. It is human nature to crave love, affection and understanding.

I love being alone. Alone is not lonely. I am surrounded by people all the time and I feel lonely.
