  1. North: LIGHTNING

    the storm rumbles loud
    a random bolt of #lightning
    in an empty room

    South: LONELY

    in that flash of light
    that brightens a #lonely soul
    a brief contentment

  3. Slow Down, Soul Up (A Witch’s Perspective)

    My eyes are closing.No! Must stay awake.I’m exhausted.I just said to my kitten Max, “Behave yourself. Go to your room!”(His room is a special pet bed that has a dome over it.) Max has two speeds: “Berserker and off (Sleep)!”He cycles through that at least 7 times a day. Perhaps, you’ve had similar experiences.You are running, running through your day. Often, I am supporting my elderly parents through their cycle of doctor/therapy appointments—get groceries—and more. Plus, […]

  4. Hi all, this is a question for the transgender community specifically. So my beautiful, shy daughter has been actively becoming her correct self for just over two years. From my viewpoint she is gorgeous, with a tall lithe slender body, curves in all the right places and looks like a right Goth rock chick and I am so proud of her. She lives about 150 miles away, on her own and has experienced transphobic abuse when out. She is a very quiet person who hates to draw attention to herself. What have other people done to forge a new peer group and friendship group after starting to present as their correct gender? #trans #lonely

  6. A Merely Audible Contemplation

    Lately, I've spent enough time alone to hear the refrigerator thinking. It's a low hum at first, but if you sit quietly long enough, you start wondering if it's judging your life choices. The funny thing is, I don't remember solitude being part of the plan. Growing up in a small town, there was always somebody around. Friends rode up on bicycles without warning. Neighbors appeared out of thin air. A trip to the grocery store took an extra thirty minutes because everybody knew your name, […]

  8. A HAIKU ON "ABSENCE"

    Echoes

    Whispers in the hall,
    But no one is there to speak,
    Shadows stretch and fade.

  9. TBH I’ve been doing this neurodivergent self-advocacy for 4 years now and I still feel lonely. Maybe I should run my neurodivergent social connection more frequently starting next month if all goes well? #neurodivergent #abbotsfoed #autistic #selfadvocacy #lonely

  13. Which Self Do You Want to Protect? (A Witch’s Perspective)

    “Just about every day, I get hit by fear of a bad future,” I said.“About what?” asked one of my spiritual elders.“Not having enough money. Losing the place where my husband and I live,” I said.“What do you want?”“I want to feel safe,” I said. Later, I reflected on this. First, let’s start with this question: What do you want? One of my husband’s friends coaches clients to have better lives. This coach said, “Many of us are preoccupied with […]

  16. Goddess Has Something to Say about Loneliness

    “I want to talk about loneliness,” I said to one of my editors.“That’s a big topic. It has so many elements to it,” my editor replied. Later, I wondered, “What has the Goddess said that applies to loneliness?” The first phrase that leapt into my thoughts was: “Keep pure your highest ideal; strive ever towards it; let naught stop you or turn you aside.” – The Goddess speaking in The Charge of the Goddess, written by Doreen Valiente Let’s look at “highest […]

  17. Everlasting stimulation, neverending entertainement, and yet... so alone,
    Plethoric profusion of engaging content, always new, and yet... so alone.
    Social network hyperconnected, real and fake facts superposed, and yet... so alone.
    Where's the key to open our closed selves? 
    Not in paid network I guess.

  18. Why 40% of People in #Japan Experience #Loneliness
    "Even people who seem to be doing well can suffer in silence. Some feel a painful gap btw te self they present to others & their real self, leav'g them w a sense of loneliness they feel unable to share.. Nor do outward living arrangements necessarily determine how #lonely a person feels.. it's important to hv a route for talking abt your worries.. when someone turns to u for help, simply #listening can make a difference"🧐

    We should read Thomas Wolfe every now and then...

    "Proud Death, proud Death, whom I have seen by darkness, at so many times, and always when you came to nameless men, what have you ever touched that you have not touched with love and pity, Death?

    Proud Death, wherever we have seen your face, you came with mercy, love, and pity, Death, and brought to all of us your compassionate sentences of pardon and release. For have you not retrieved from exile the desperate lives of men who never found their home?

    Have you not opened your dark door for us who never yet found doors to enter and given us a room who, roomless, doorless, unassuaged, were driven on forever through the streets of life?

    Have you not offered us your stern provender, Death, with which to stay the hunger that grew to madness from the food it fed upon, and given all of us the goal for which we sought but never found, the certitude, the peace, for which our overladen hearts contended, and made for us, in your dark house, an end of all the tortured wandering and unrest that lashed us on forever?

    Proud Death, proud Death, not for the glory that you added to the glory of the king, proud Death, nor for the honor that you imposed upon the dignities of famous men, proud Death, nor for the final magic that you have given to the lips of genius, Death, but because you come so gloriously to us who never yet knew glory, so proudly and sublimely to us whose lives were nameless and obscure, because you give to all of us—the nameless, faceless, voiceless atoms of the earth—the awful chrism of your grandeur, Death, because I have seen and known you so well, and have lived alone so long with Loneliness, your brother, I do not fear you any longer, friend, and have made this praise for you."

    (By: Thomas Wolfe, "DEATH THE PROUD BROTHER")

  21. The #Lonely #Runner #Conjecture explores the motion of n runners on a circular track of unit length, each starting at the same point with different constant speeds.

    It posits that for every runner, there exists a time when they are "lonely," meaning they are at a distance of at least 1/n from every other runner on the track.

  22. The search for contact continues; almost daily. The quest to regain my independence is slow but steady. I may finally record and publish some of the #music I've been writing over the past few weeks. Maybe soon I can return to eating more than 3 or 4 times a week on average. Maybe I can once again buy the medicine that works half the time (half the time is better than nothing).
    Until then the lines are blurred and every day is a repeat.
