What are you going to do about being lonely? What would you like to change in this world, in this society, to feel more accepted? What are your expectations, if they are any?

walkman said:Good question sevenacids. I have pretty similar questions. Only that I have no answers yet... and I don't think there are perfect and easy ways to understanding our loneliness and conflict. It's one **** difficult issue. Practical and convinient solutions don't work here. But I only know that there ought to be some questioning, a lot of questioning, of similar types, rather than just passive acceptance. Never stop questioning things.
But one thing is for sure, whatever psychological pain that's going on in all the people out there and on in this forum, there is no point wanting to change the world, or keep some naive wish for a world of hugging people. That's never going to happen, and that's not action either. Let's keeps ideals and expectations aside. The change must happen within people nonetheless, and it must be radical. No science, no tecnology, no religion, no ideology, no economic system, no leader, no guru, no art etc. can alone solve the massive problems of conflict between humans. All others are just secondary symtoms of it (loneliness being one).
that's what I think... my first feeling of it... would like to know what you think...
