Understanding The Loneliness

Loneliness…

It’s an emotion that’s never really welcomed, but sometimes needed. Moments in life arise where it’s actually healthy to experience the emptiness of having no one in your life. In those painfully uncomfortable moments, you’re granted the solitude to reconnect with faith, reconnect with life, and reconnect with your unique understanding of who you are and what you want. Embrace that clarity … and embrace all that you can learn from the loneliness.

Right now, do me a favor and close your eyes. Take in this moment, and forever remember it. And when that special someone comes along, appreciate them for who they are, and for where you’ve just come from.

In honor of this moment, I thought I’d take it back to a song that poignantly expresses where some of you may be right now. It’s a personal favorite of mine … Troop’s “Spread my Wings.” Enjoy.

Fly Lyrics

I’ve imagined faces of many lovers
To ease the pain of having no one in my life
And I’m tired of being undercover
It’s time to navigate my feelings tonight

The sky is calm, the stars are bright
What’s better than to be in flight
I’ll relax my mind and be at ease.
And let this journey set me free

Spread my wings and fly away
To a place that I long for.
And my heart will be the pathway
I’m searching for a love that’s ever more

2nd Verse
I often wondered how I managed
Always searching but not finding a true heart
What does it take to find me a lover
I’m hoping that I don’t have to fly too far.

The sky is calm, the stars are bright
What’s better than to be in flight
I’ll relax my mind and be at ease.
And let this journey set me free

Spread My Wings

    I don’t think anyone could ever really understand another person’s loneliness. I mean, in order to understand their loneliness….you’d kind of have to take an interest in getting to know this person, and from that point, they aren’t lonely anymore because they now have someone trying to get to know them, which is kind of the antithesis of being lonely.

    As far as I go…..I don’t think being lonely is anything to be proud of or happy about. Sure, everyone needs their ‘me time’, but when that goes over the course of 10 or so years like mine has…..it kind of grows old on you. I spend a lot of time focused on myself. Making myself better. Thinking and doing for myself. Wondering why I’m by myself most of the time. All that time inside of my own mind has kind of gotten me lost inside the hows and the whys of my own mind from time to time. I used to be a nice guy, but the asshole in me comes out every once in a while….and with increased intensity, too.

    I agree we need time alone, with only ourselves so that we can reflect. Some times are more difficult than others, but the more I reflect, I realize I am never alone. Feeling lonely yes, but completely alone no. I am thankful that I have (through being alone) developed a relationship with God who is always there. It is a bit cliche, I know. But the truth is as I lay at night, I sometimes want someone there. But as I reflect completely, I start to think about whether I want just anyone and the answer is a resounding “no.” I think when loneliness ends for me, I will appreciate him that much more because I know I have reflected long and hard on what I want and he happens to be it.
