Isn't it amazing?

To know that you are connected intimately, universally with every neutrino, quark, molecule, speck of dust, tree, child, adult, planet, galaxy; all past, now, and future.

All of it.

And always utterly alone in that hideous beauty.

Dynamic, connected, vulnerable, and alone.

To give and receive, in that alone-ness that fills all voids.

Can it get any better?

Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self. Look for yourself, and you will find in the long run only hatred, loneliness, despair, rage, ruin, and decay.

If you know how clever that reply is, you're amazing.

If you don't know how clever that reply is, you're amazing but don't know you're amazing.

The "breaks it up a bit" - that's the amazing bit.

That's where the ouroboros dances with its heart. And still has to move ever onwards.

"You feeling ok robocop? "

Awww Fred - you're a sweetie.

Yes. I've just seen a lot of stuff recently, elsewhere and here, that I thought needed a challenge to alone/lonely.

Being a brutal cunt who loves alone and is concerned that so many people miss its possibilities (mentally, emotionally, philosophically, physically) - I wanted to chuck the challenge out there as a counterbalance.

I've done similar things on my other social media over the last few weeks and months xxx

You can enjoy being alone and yet have momentary craving for connection.

You can be surrounded by friends, or laying next to someone who is meant to love you ... and feel the loneliest you've ever felt.

Being truly comfortable alone is a gift I've be nurturing for myself.

lol hey i do find it odd though that with all these billions of people in the world that people complain (not you) that they are lonely, my theory is they themselves isolate themselves from deeper involvement with other people, to the extent that friends and family then isolate themselves from him or her. We all have taste in people, looks, cleanliness, race, jobs, education etc so why if we are feeling lonely can't we break our own restrictions and just get close to people. I'm a friendly guy i smile at people and say hi and people respond to that.

^^ because people isolate themselves in tribes and don't let others in. I try to be friendly to everyone in social situations and obviously so do you but the vast majority of people exclude others.

Then you get people like my father. Widowed two years ago after 67 years of marriage. He has a good social life and many friends but he's terribly lonely.

It isn't always the lonely persons fault

I think it's a lot about developing cultures where we experience incredible closeness (it builds our "heart-joy") whilst having no desire for ownership or possession in that.

That changes our entire political and economic superstructure as well though, so it's enormous.

We do "need" the pleasure people can provide, and we do "need" responsiveness to our genuine vulnerabilities. To turn that into ownerships and possessiveness just seems anachronistic, irregular, outmoded.

Have you read Marge Piercy's "Woman at the Edge of Time"? It's great for cracking everything apart and looking anew. Including child-rearing. Great book. Odd, and deep. Very, very readable. It's also wise enough to know how near impossible such seismic change is.

But only "near" impossible.

I'll take those odds .

i think that applys for any long relationship that changes/ends - my child is moving onto the next step of their lives, which is great, I've done my single parenting thing well. But the void is suddenly bigger than i thought - having focused on one person for such a long time 17 years i have been mother/father/extended family to one person and now Im not required - its a huge adjustment

True i suppose residential living is out of the question, suppose that has its ups and downs in so far as you can't choose the people you are living with and if he's still independent he wants to maintain his independence, the residential places I've visited they seem to have great social aspects, organised activities etc

It's not a question of residential living. I think you're missing the point that it's possible to be lonely while interacting with many people.

Solving the problem of loneliness isn't as simple as telling someone to be with people. They have to be 'your' people.

It's true, we are one...

...everything in the universe is interconnected and interdependent."

Oh I like you Sissy. And awareness of that doesn't necessarily make it better, but that awareness (which seems to be supported at the cutting edge of physics and philosophy, no gods required) IS a strong basis for moving into making everything a bit better.

I think queer, neuroqueer, neurospicy, neurodivergent are all some of that potential in squidgy human form that can explore a newer and more germane ethics xx

"Isn't it amazing?

To know that you are connected intimately, universally with every neutrino, quark, molecule, speck of dust, tree, child, adult, planet, galaxy; all past, now, and future.

All of it.

And always utterly alone in that hideous beauty.

Dynamic, connected, vulnerable, and alone.

To give and receive, in that alone-ness that fills all voids.

Can it get any better?

Is that how you feel right now op"

Thanks for asking. Leaving my crap jokes aside for now, it's been the main theme in my thought and feeling for about 15 years. Main theme. By far. But not the only theme.

It is, however, very "contra" to the pressures and dynamics that surround us in 21st Century "west" in particular (not that anywhere else has really got a handle on it either).

So I'd have to be even more of a cunt than many people already think I am not to have incredible empathy for the confusions surrounding navigating our days and nights.

Plus, there's every good reason I could be entirely misguided.

Isn’t quark that horrible cheese stuff? I don’t want to be connected with that.

They're up and down. Strangeness and charm

Deep.

I’ve been learning about sociograms and social quotient so it’s a bit interesting.

Not sure I understand the chemical analogy, yeah we’re all made of the same stuff , as is dirt, diamonds and dog poo , but that’s not what connects us.

What connects us is relationships, personalities and the unseen grid with outs own energy called social capital.

I love a bit of non-duality.

That relinquishing of control, acceptance of our temporal existence.

Old evaporated milk cans ripped apart by mighty behemoth claws. Can't beat a bit of the Dharma Bum life, before rotating back to the real world.

There's a very good William Blake piece where he alludes to one of the prophets basically eating poo (by cooking on dung, that poo gets into the food).

Underneath the surface, one of the things Blake is saying (because every one of his sentences usually says about a hundred things ) is that we are emotionally and "holistically" connected, even with the yukky stuff. An infinity in every thing (not infinity in everything).

Gets closer to quantum physics (Bohmian Holography) than chemistry in 21st Century language, although we could split the difference and go quantum chemistry because I liked your whole reply and wanted to acknowledge it.
