Lonliness is the window to all sorts of deliquent behavior...
Posted 03-26-2011 at 03:54 PM by Time and Space
When one is lonely their more likely to..
1. Drink
2. Do drugs
3. Cheat on spouse (adultry)(affair)
4. Hang around people they normally wouldn't
And just the four consequinces listed above, are enough to destroy a life.
When I hear radio sermans...Pastors never seem to address that issue.
Lonliness is like an appetite, unless it's satisfied, it will over ride everything else...it, lonliness, will direct your mood and behavior, and stear you places or to things, that can temporarily relieve it.
People don't nessisarily 'sin'...do to out right rebellion against 'God' or 'Jesus' or 'The bible'...or 'The commandments'...
They 'sin', cause their led places where they think they can quench their lonliness...
And again, some of these places can be chemical and or mental...(like relationships).
A typical sequence to how someone who is lonley can end up in a bad situation...
Joan...
1. At home alone at 09:00 pm...
2. No one calls, so Joan drinks a bottle of wine..
3. Feeling bold now, Joan calls up ex-boyfriend
4. Ex-boy friend comes over and brings shady friends
5. Joan continues to drink, as a result reasoning ability is greatly diminished...
6. Ex-boy friend pulls out bag of narcotics...Joan participates.
7. Two days later Joans employer does a randomn drug test...Joan fails, and is terminated from Job...
Let's review the above...notice Joan wasn't led to drinking or narcotics that night do to out right rebellion against 'God'...but rather they were led there do to lonliness.
Trying to satisfy the pains of lonliness led them down that road in stages...
Lonliness is the key to what ails many, and is what drives a lot of behavior and actions.
If, when, you satisfy lonliness inside of people, a lot will be corrected.
How can that be done?
Can it ever be done?
We'll take a further look at lonliness in the following posts..

Whenever you look up graphics or type in 'lonely'...I notice they always like to accompany a one line saying with some 'cute' teenage figure...usually female...
As if only cute 'white' female teenage girls are lonely...
In other words, seems mainstream has 'sexualized' lonliness...
Made lonliness into a model...a playboy model...
Like everything else, this society has cheapened and commercialized what it is to be lonely...
And make those who truly are 'ugly' and 'unattractive', feel even more 'isolated'...
Lonliness comes in many colors, shades, ages, genders and demigraphics...
Not saying that 'cute' 'cuddly' teenage girls can't be lonely...but where I grew up, they were the popular ones, had all the friends, and did just fine...
A lot of people I encounter or see who are lonely...don't look like cute little adorable teenage girls...(what a myth)...
Many lonley souls are older, past their 'sexual prime', many are minorities, many are homeless, or single mothers..(who once were cute and cuddly, but are now heavy and out of shape)...
And males...like everything else in the public media, seems lonliness has been feminized...
And lonely guys of all ages, are just discarded...cause their not 'cute' and or 'cuddly'...
It seems in this American culture, everything has to be cute and cuddly in order to have relevance, or get the attention of others...
If one is attractive and cute, their less likely to be lonley.
Those posters and internet images you see of cute cuddly upper middle class gals (models) curled up on the floor, pretending to be 'lonley'...is not the face of lonliness...
It's simply the face of sexual marketing...
Don't get the two confused...
If your homely, overweight, and or older, or divorced, or live alone, or are handicapped, dis-abled, a minority in your community, or get picked on...
I feel your pain...later...Posted 03-30-2011 at 09:42 AM by Time and Space

Lonliness can also be expensive...
Lonliness can be expensive, in that when lonely, we, people, us, often find ourselves buying items, we normally might not, to mask the lonliness...
This could be electronic devices, food, vehicles, and or other misc items...
It's a remedy that usually only works short term...after the thrill of purchasing is gone, or food swallowed...that deep down lonely feeling soon returns...Posted 04-09-2011 at 07:34 PM by Time and Space

Lonliness when you loose someone...
Loosing someone in your life, particularly a parent, can also leave you feeling lonely...or empty...and without a future...or meaningful one.
Even if you didn't get along with that parent, or disagreed with them on fundamental principles or issues, there absence from life can still leave you feeling lonely.
And it can leave a void..(same thing, just different word)...it's like 'who do you have to impress anymore'...type of thing...
It's like no one else will really care if you fail or succeed like a parent does. To everyone else, whether you fail or succeed is just 'business'...in other words, if you work for a company, their interest in you ends when you punch the time clock.
The loss of parent can also leave other siblings feeling lost and scattered, and to question what they really mean to each other in the absence of the 'figure head'...
It's a time that can really leave you searching...expecially if your single, and have no kids of your own.
Family is so important, and really does help define so much in ones life.
Trying to find a new 'figure head', someone who sees potential in you, desires for you to succeed, can be near impossible when you get older, outside of family.
Many may turn to 'God' to fill that role...an 'all loving God'...
But sometimes I wonder if turning to 'god' is really just turning to yourself, and telling yourself things you really just hope and or believe God would say to you if in your presence.
(but that's getting off on another subject)
Anyhow...just felt like laying down some thoughts...Posted 06-23-2011 at 07:17 PM by Time and Space
