Well its been told that you can be in a group of people and still feel all alone and/or lonely.
I can say I have experienced this. My goodness it isn't pleasant.
Last night I couldnt sleep, so I decided I was going to go into a chat room ,that I have been frequenting for many, many months. And when I got there, there were a few people in there and 3 were actively talking and those 3 had their cams on, so I know they were at their computers. I got 1 greeting and that was it, nobody else greeted me and even that one that did, that was all I got from them was a hello.
They were too busy chatting with each about themselves and what was going on with them, that it was as if they didnt see anyone else in the room.
So I just left. And so then that just did not sit well with my soul. I have spent months with these people and I went in there lonely, but definitely felt alone in this group of people. I left feeling more wounded when I left, then when I did when I went in.
Am I like this, am I selective with who I speak with. Lord, my word, I don't ever want to treat anyone like they are on the outside looking in, when they really are inside.
Lord, how do I help these people, myself included, stop being selective, in a cliché, because it hurts when it happens to you.
Lord, open their eyes to accept that they do this, whether they mean to or not. Father help them change these ways. It is a hard process to change the way we do things but most times for our growth, you never take us through something to leave us worse of then we were before, amen
