I think I know what it is that makes people feel lonely the most. It's having insensitive, shallow and mediocre people around oneself, people who having the least capacity to Listen, who never open up, who never become vulnerable and say "I don't know". It's all about how much 'I know, I have'... me, me and endless 'me'ing... all the vanity and arrogance of it. They just talk on thier petty buisness topics, don't appreciate and take interest in anything meaningful.
I have some of my brother's aquantainces come home today. And I can't but help pity on thier sheer dullness. As if the have perfected a skill to 'neglect' things. They are stuck in thier shallow and senseless idiotic gossip. I feel like sitting infront of cardboards, not people, but heartless unintelligent things, chaotic units, dull and thick-headed. They are totally inadequate to meet somebody in heart. As if they have never had the joy of real communication.
Ahh! that it painful as... no wonder people isolate themselves. Is there ONE person out here who understands what I mean?! It feels distant and abandoned just being amidst these people.
The world could do with people with some real intelligence and humility!
