Depression and Accepting or Resisting Futility

[Minyatur]

So how does one deal with loneliness in your opinion?

I think a bit like Rita said, loneliness is actually about feeling disconnected with the core yourself and to fill this void you can feel drawn to use others, but this doesn't really address what makes you lonely either. Once you fail to find someone to use to escape yourself, you are brought back to the same state of imbalance that is left unresolved and need to face the associated lesson. At some point the only service others may offer is to push you away, so you distill yourself with yourself, because that is the only way sometimes certain things can change.

So the point is to seek to be whole with yourself and for that you can start by working on the beliefs you have, monitor the thoughts you entertain in your mind and balance your emotions as they arise. If you believe you can't just be well with yourself, then you can't fix the imbalance and instead perpetuate it. If you just dwell in depressive thoughts, then you are bringing down your emotional world.

In the idea of the Law of One, loneliness does not really make sense because all there is is the One Infinite Creator. Even as two selves, It experiences Itself in reflection of its own potential. It is always just experiencing Itself. So when we are feeling lonely, we are the One Infinite Creator hurt in the perception of an illusion, but in perception of the truth we find completeness within ourselves.

If you are able to feel whole and complete with yourself, then all your relationships will become healthier, because rather than to interact with people out of need, you will interact with people out of genuine interest for them and who they are. Getting there though, I think, takes a lot of self-forgiveness and it is a gradual process.

You are whole and complete in the essence of what you are. With faith, you can align yourself with living it consciously. If you accept the worse and open yourself for the best, then your walk through life is a journey most fascinating.
