My titles rarely mean anything than some random affiliation to what i'm thinking. Today I'm thinking about how sad it is that there is so much about what one can do for oneself and to oneself and all about oneself. Today, my station I work in lost our one form of entertainment, a tv. It is a sad day. :( But why? We watched movies on it, and tv shows (well what they can show and I can actually watch). Til it was gone did I not realize how much I liked it, just the noise of it, someone watching a movie or sports. Now it is very quiet. Hm, i think we replace people with technology, but that is a different thought.
I wonder if that is how we are. We don't realize we were meant to be with others, to have connections, to mingle, to not be alone.
I'm in the midst of something big (at least to myself), something I pray no one has to go through. Isolation, pain, and fear. Even in laughter, it is sad. The scripture puts it right in :
Proverbs 14:13
Even in laughter the heart may ache, and joy may end in grief.
This is why it is imperative to reach out to EVERYONE. No one is perfect, no one is fully happy.Even "loners" need somebody. God gives us happiness, but it isn't just that it is "Well I have GOD, I don't need anyone else", haha what jokes we say when we say that. God is IN those around you (if we truly surround ourselves with His children). Even David, had Jonathan for a while, Samuel also, Jesus had His disciples and others. While "alone time" is important, NO DOUBT about that. It is important to realize that it is not just "me, myself, and I". It is important to not be a "me against the world" mentality. These ways of being self centered or selfish truly add in killing what we were to be.
It's ok to want to be with people. It is the company we keep that is the real issue. .....to be continued......
Peace, Love, Happiness, Joy, Blessings......:)
