For the lonely ones...

Beautifully written. I would only like to add a perspective to this sentiment:

Maybe when I saw a world that had no room for me, I was actually the one rejecting the world, not the other way around.

For me personally, and maybe it applies to others, I've found that it's me rejecting my own self. Once I feel totally comfortable in my own skin (it happens sometimes but not persistently) I notice that the perceptions I think others have of me don't hold anymore. Simply because I don't care what others perceptions are. I only care that I'm happy and comfortable in my own skin. I radiate a higher frequency and notice that people tend to follow my lead naturally.

Furthermore, happiness is most certainly a choice. And so is sorrow and everything in between. We can choose happiness, albeit hard at times. The choice is always ours to make.

Thanks again for this awesome post.

Such a sweet, melancholic tune and voice. Thank you for sharing this. 🌿 I’m convinced that loneliness is simply part of being human. After all, we can only ever truly know our own experience; we are each quite alone in our separate bodies.

To me, it’s not about banishing the loneliness, but learning to perceive it as aloneness, instead. Embracing solitude is a lifelong practice...🌸

Suddenly, I'm mourning for the passing of lonely meno. That dude was Sufjan Stevens, or maybe a walking one man Snow Patrol!

Gorgeous song. So lovely. A rare song that provokes a response on the first listen.

Not the reaction you wanted, I guess. :)

@meno ya,this happens with me many times.But sometimes it is good to be lonely,because at this time we can know ourselves.And once we know how to spend time with ourselves and enjoy being alone,we will never be lonely.We should always keep moving.Thanks for sharing such wonderful blog.

I just realized: this is the first time I've met Meno the musician :-) Really: I've never heard you sing and play before and it sounds great!

I hope your friend finds whatever's needed to realize what you realized: very few people are truly lonely. But Zippy's right to... I think it's something we all learn with time, we're in this together and alone, and all relations are of different "distance" or "closeness" depending on how good we manage to share our aloneness, how open we're willing to be, how vulnerable we dare be with the other... Don't know if that made any sense...

Thanks for a beautiful post and song my friend :-)

Thank you my friend... I guess, I should share some more music, I don't do it often enough.

It seems understanding and accepting responsibility goes a long way to undo the loneliness felt for many young men in particular. Enjoyed reading your post and listening to your music, thanks.

That's a beautifully put-together/executed demo.
