Most people know how it feels to be lonely at times, but do you know someone that is alone most of the time. They are different than most people. They tend to feel different about most everything they do. They feel like an outcast. This type of person can teach the world many lessons. Here are some examples:
Patience, acceptance, sacrifice, unconditional love, and many other things surface from our own personalities, due to lessons from the lonely at heart.
Feel the pain they feel from loneliness, then you can truly help them, and learn from them.

I am alone and lonely most of the time.
Think of being alone as a time to find out more about yourself. Maybe learn to paint or draw. Learn to yarn. Read good books, and so on.
I often ask myself, “What is loneliness and what purpose does it serve us if we are stuck in it?”
The lonely, I think, can have a special contact with their inner being if it, the loneliness, reaches deep enough down into them, but if it just stays as a covering on their surface, they do not reach this deeper self, and so they can then even lose their connection to other people too.
Let love in you, and let it out of you too.
Let love reach deep, but never cover it over with blankets of thick loneliness.
Bore at least a few holes in each blanket with both the reaching out and in, past the blanket, to the light, both inside and outside of you too.
Do not be darkened by the blanket of loneliness.
The person I know like this is trying hard to fight his loneliness, but his biological family are not close to him, and it hurts him. He keep trying though.
Yes, we need to keep trying different ways to lose our loneliness, and to find more love, or things, and people, animals, plants, anything, to love.
Loneliness has underlying factors especially in the negative point of view. But being alone is another thing. That could be to get away from the stressful environment, to stay away from unwanted people, among others.
Thank you Gil for you Gil for sharing your thoughts.
You’re welcome. It is a pleasure to share my thoughts for the benefit of others.
I am alone a lot but am never lonely. I enjoy solitude, but also enjoy people when they are visiting.
I agree with you Barbara, and thank you.
Do you believe if I say that I was one of those people in the past?
It is hard to believe that you were ever lonely but glad you are not lonely anymore.
If you know how to feel lonely in a crowd, or for example when we are only invited to gather when our help is expected. But indeed, on the other hand, I like to be alone, either to observe my mind, people, or anything.
Loneliness can be deadly. When people are alone, and feel no interaction they tend to give up.
Yes, you are right Ghostwriter.
I myself felt what loneliness was … it’s nothing good
Yes, vidocka, it is a sad way to live, and thank you.
This is such a sad case of being. It’s often that as a result of this people are susceptible to suicide. We are seeing the increase of teenage suicide on the rise in my country. Fortunately good folk like CJ Benjamin have started campaigns to address this issue with the help of many volunteers
Thank you, Bradley, for sharing your thoughts.
Many lonely people out there and most are lonely in their own silence, very sad.
Some folks can feel comfortable by themselves, others can feel alone in a crowd…
Thank you, Alex, and you are so right.
I am at ease with solitude, but for some it is torture…
I like this quote, always have. BA ba black sheep!! I am one of those. I love being out alone, just love it. I am not a loner though.
My cousin Janet and I are the black sheep of our family…
Thanks for the information … loneliness is something we can learn and get use to.
That’s what I feel …
Thank you alibb for your insight on this topic.
