#LonelyAtHolidays? Remember the difference btw #aloneness & #loneliness. Meditation can teach deep lessons of being alone & one w/ oneself.
Not all our friends need to be 2-legged: we walk thru forests of physical & spiritual beings who look on us w/ affection. #companioncreation

“There are some places in life where you can only go alone. Embrace the beauty of your solo journey.”

All the lonely people • Nick Haslam

A Nordic writer foregrounds the social and political causes of loneliness

Inside Story

And again, I'm #bored and #lonely . I would love to do something to change that. Mainly would love to do something to change my #Finance so that I can move out of my parents' place.

"#Social #Cocooning" - the "new #desire for #solitude" or "#cultivated #aloneness"

It is apparently this new desire, at the more or less freely selected #loneliness, as cultivated being #alone, the so-called "Social Cocooning" as new #future #trend. This current "#Zeitgeist #phenomenon" I would like to go for given cause therefore once in the following essay in the context of a social-theoretical analysis on the trace.

Social Cocooning - die neue Lust an Einsamkeit

"Social Cocooning" als neue Lust an der frei-gewählten Einsamkeit im Spannungsfeld zwischen "Hyggeligkeit" und "JOMO" (Joy of missing out)

"#Social #Cocooning" - the "new desire for solitude" or "#cultivated #aloneness"

For some fellow human beings, this "human fussiness" is simply too much; they don't even have to be pathological sociopaths, bearish misanthropes or inveterate singles. No, on the contrary, it is apparently this new desire, at the more or less freely selected loneliness, as cultivated being alone, the so-called "Social Cocooning" as new future trend.

"It's no good trying to get rid of your own aloneness. You've got to stick to it all your life. Only at times, at times, the gap will be filled in. At times! But you have to wait for the times. Accept your own aloneness and stick to it, all your life. And then accept the times when the gap is filled in, when they come. But they've got to come. You can't force them."

D.H. Lawrence, Lady Chatterley's Lover

Good morning, 🐢🐢🐢

15 April 2024

How can people not feel that the world revolves around them? Because in a sense it does, doesn't it? We are all alone in our bodies and everything and everyone else is outside. Hmmm ... at least most of us, I've read about some people who have company, or at least think they do. Here's another thought, in my dreams, I'm usually not alone, there are other people in the dreams. In the waking hours though, we can only interact with other people and things through our senses. Some people, and animals for that matter, for some reason start to feel as if they are part of us, and when they are torn away from us, it feels as if we are losing part of ourselves. Our lives go on.

Their continued existence.” - Christopher Hitchens, Hitch 22: A Memoir
