Each of us is now electronically connected to the globe, and yet we feel utterly alone?

I don't feel alone!!!  :D\n\nBut yes, we are always linked/connected to someone or SOMETHING, and people feel alone. There you can see that you can have everything in life, but if you don't have someone to share it with, you become miserable.

Nope, The computer is a substitute.  We do this because we are missing something elsewhere.  If we find peace and satisfaction, we won't be on this gig any more.  What are you missing?

"the global village" is not literally a village.   It refers to how the world has become so much smaller because of the growth of the internet and other forms of communication.  We can reach out and engage in conversations with people who might be halfway across the world.   For all I know,  you and I are on different continents,  but it's no different than if you were across the street.

Does it matter? The Internet is everywhere...

I have been peeped on and it has affected my life in ways you will never understand. Whenever I am alone, I never feel like I am alone, I always wonder if there is someone watching me. Its a very uncomfortable and discerning feeling. I dont know that I will ever feel a true feeling of privacy ever again, or ever feel comfortable alone again.

Yes zool, sometimes I feel very sad and loney too.  My marriage of 27 years broke up about 3 yars ago.  Then I met someone, fell in love and got engaged.  He died last September.  Since then I can't seem to "find my place."  You know, where I belong.  I moved to another state but feel like I need to go back where I came from because my children and grandchildren are there.  What is making you feel sad and lonely?  You can email me at watsoq9@yahoo.com if you like.

It's a feeling I'm all to familiar with.  I'm an oddball.  I don't like to run with the pack.  The pack I run with today might decide we're lemmings tomorrow.  I've had a great deal of success at being myself, and as much as it pisses off the world, I'm not ****ing changing.  I find that as much as I've heard that Christians are strangers and aliens in this land, just as much I'm finding it's the truth.  I feel alone much of the time, and it's a rare thing for me to find someone who thinks and feels the way I do.  Hope this helps, as I don't really know where you're coming from.  From a psychological point of view, perhaps you simply need to find your center and connect with people who have more similar interests.  Or perhaps you should do what I find myself doing much of the time...hanging out with my dog.

Honey, I often wondered the same thing...but then I realized that while we all live in our own realties, we are linked by our own human existance.  Things don't dissappear into dark nothingness simply because you have left that area.  How do I know this?  Because I am sitting here in Cleveland right now smoking a cigarette (not gange like you are), living in my own little reality.  Also, I think it is important to realize for yourself that you are just a small fragment of a whole.  You need to get over yourself, and I don't mean that in a snotty way, I mean that you are dealing with your id, which is a common human experience, and one needs to give of their selves in order to conquer his or her feelings of isolation.

Dear God,\n\nI am quite happy and contended, hope you are feeling the same even after creating we humans.\n\nI know a few billion cratures here on earth dont mean much to you because you have to take care of billion of solar systems and compared to your entire kingdon , we are not even a dot on your atlas but here i am representing a section of a species that you crafted and i would like to draw you attention to the fact that , its an emergency and we need your help. \nPlease do focus your attention at us for a while\n\nThank you God

That's a really good question, and on the surface not as easy to answer as one might think. I had never really thought about it. \n\nI am known for being a loner in the sense that I don't go  out and do things with other people very much.  Actually, its pretty rare.  I am pretty much a person who likes to stay home, and I live alone, so one could probably say, I am a loner.\n\nBut it's like I told my dad once, "I may be alone, but I am not lonely." I  believe the answer to the quetion  depends on how one feels when they are alone.  \n\nA person who chooses to be alone may still feel lonely. And if he/she feels lonely, they probably are not loners.\n\nMake any sense?

I think we all get that feeling sometimes. Sometimes you sit in a crowd and you still feel lonely. I think knowing God helps and also going out and caring about others. I like the saying "the only way to have a friend is to be one". If you look for someone else who is lonely and you make their day by giving them some attention, it also make you feel less lonely because someone appreciates what you did. I think it also helps to find fulfillment in what you do. Work on your talents and hobbies and you'll find satifsaction.

no.  You are all alone.

Probably something to do with the fact we all live together on this planet but when you die you are then on your own

I have been left alone in the world. There is no one with me: my parents,relatives and friends.
