Why are people so lonely ? part 3.

Are you selfish?
This is one of the issues we have in the world. We, as humans, became very selfish.
Why do you go to work everyday? Why do you do what you do on daily basis? Do you do this for yourself or for the benefit of others?
From what i realize, most people are at their jobs just to pay their bills or to buy something for themselves.... which is necessary, but this should not be the only reason why we live our lives, just for US. Can you agree that we are very self-centered human beings and that's what's hurting us as a society? So how can we solve this?
1. Think of the thing you would most love to do for the rest of your life and that you would be able to do for free... something that you really love.
2. Start pursuing that dream.
3. Get out of the environment you are in now and do what you love.

Okay, what does this have to do with us being lonely? See, when we live a self-centered life and only think about ourselves and not about others, it actually makes us lonely. Especially if you work a job that you don't really love and you live your life just to pay bills or just to satisfy your needs... basically you live for yourself and do not even think about others...
See the principal "love your neighbor as yourself " works... whether we like it or not.
When we are all about us we are alone.
When we live and have consideration for others we are together...
When you start wanting to go to your job to make this community a better place, you will see how your views on life will change. You will see how much others will start caring about you.
We have to stop being greedy and so competitive and enjoy our lives. Because in reality no one really cares what you wear, what you drive, or how big your house is. Yes, people might look at you for a second or two, but at the end of the day we are still alone and by ourselves.
The reason why is because we have never lived our life for more than just our personal satisfaction. We always wanted more for ourselves.
If you did try this principle and people mistreated you, it's fine. Just keep on going and move on to another person. God himself said, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all." So serving others is not always pleasant, but its satisfying. In doing that, you will be first and you will never feel lonely....
God bless. Part 4 coming soon ....
