Loneliness

Why are so many so lonely? Is technology the problem or the answer? Is it possible through YouTube to build a community of people who seek deeper connections?

If you got money, you are allowed to think and live your life like you do. but if not, you are in a big mess... so ultimaltly you are a "genius or a loser" depending on you bank account and unfortunatly you can't hide or run from these guidelines...

@plstrom Does this belief help or limit you? Live life on your own terms.

i agree with a lot of what you say ( sometimes in this world the sense of lonlyless is strong ) but I see also a great danger in searching "like minded people", because it sounds like special people and one can became cultish, is easy to hide our real problems behind a "like minded" group. Of couse is good to be with people you share points of views or what ever but the problem i see is to join to a group who only shares the lonlynness. It could be another form to evade our real problems

@jruizdemena Find kindred spirits or non kindred spirits. Your intuition knows best what kind of friends it needs. Trust it to guide you.

I relate to what you say and how you're feeling but I believe in my heart that I wouldn't have made it without God. Good video.

@66thPsalm Thank you. Key word 'believe'. Is there any possible chance that God is a belief humans have created? Meditate on it without an immediate automated rebuttal.

You really connected with me in this video. I feel the same way as you. It is near impossible to find others that have similar views as mine such as you. People in general try to appeal to the physical image that is portrayed in magazines and on TV so that they can feel loved. Anonymity can also be good. It lets you get to know a person for their inner self rather than their physical appearance. I find that getting to know people without concern over looks makes a more fulfilling relationship.

It's so hard to forget about how one was "programmed" since birth. It's hard to get out of the material comfort but it feels so much nicer and better to live a simpler life and centre in ourselves. It's hard to live in society knowing something that people don't want to get out of. I'm happy I can find people that know this stuff.

I would, with pleasure, ask you out, have dinner, and a chat with you, because you seem to be a very interesting, and attractive person :-). Thank you for some great insights.

Steve, you are so right! I feel happy I am not the only one thinking this way. You are doing great thing sharing this truth, thank you for this.

Thanks for your wisdom, Steve. In order to take the journey inward and cultivate my spirit as you mention, what might be the first step? I realize it will vary from person to person, but would you suggest for a person getting started (especially with regards to loneliness)? My journey inward began 5 years ago and there has indeed been a bit of growth. But with respect to deepening my connection to human beings, the only thing I've progressed in is realizing the full depth of my loneliness.

[wisenstoopid]

Youre absolutely right, but we are in too deep and too conditioned to even realise

[Saura74]

Humanity is a piece of shit loaded with double standards and hypocrites and if you live in the west you got front row seat.

[ramonagroos1]

when we will meet ????????? :)

[Jenn24551]

Yes! I'm glad I came upon this video. Thank you so much!!! It can be hard to find kindred spirits, but they are out there and it is so special when you finally meet them. It makes it worth the wait.

I love your video, you are so right.
