About Loneliness

Writing on a blog and writing what you really feel are definitely entirely different things. You cannot but wonder how people will feel when you write certain things too close to the heart. That is but one of the several risks that you must undertake when you choose this less traveled (yes it is with a single letter “L”) path.

A lot of people put it that the progress of the society pushes humans to become alienated. We become increasingly individualized because of the same gradual improvement to the ease of getting day-to-day tasks done. In the process of getting things done fast by technology and know-how, we unconsciously lose the interaction that we spend in doing it. (Or as gained as some might put it)

Thus we feel lonely.

We begin to ponder on how we can still reach out to people around us. We begin to feel a vacuum forming around each and every single one of us. We go to work and we go out to play. We see people and yet we are so far apart in our minds and our souls. We begin to express ourselves in different ways, in blogs as “experts” have pointed out to be, a device in which is a representation of our loneliness that comes about and along with progress.

When we become institutionalized (a measurement of professional development), we become less and less humane. We become efficient and we present a professional and effective image to all the people around us. We begin to want to be seen in a different light, we aspire to be perfect and we are above the rest. We lead and we desire people to follow us in our fashion.

But is that truly what things seemed to be running? Is that universal truth? Is that what certain religious individuals pertain it to be? Is that the true meaning to our very own lives?

Do we get in touch with our souls? Do we see the need? Are we connecting as we ought to be?
