LONELINESS(Aloneness)


      To generally discuss Loneliness, I will say , Loneliness is an emotional response to isolation. The vocabulary, Loneliness has different meaning which are as a result of how it's used. It simply means feeling alone. Loneliness is a feeling that you are isolated, though, you might be surrounded by a crowd of people and yet be lonely.
      Loneliness according to English Dictionary is"the state of being alone or have no companion." The obsolete or old meaning of Loneliness from English Dictionary is" A desire to be alone ; disposition to solitude."
       However, the existentialist school of thought views Loneliness as"The essence of being human." Meaning that, human being came to the world alone ,you move alone with Life , though, surrounded by people but getting along just alone.      Persay,Loneliness is a normative nature of human being. Every human being at a particular stage experiences aloness, but some feel it's bad , mistaking it to "Emotional Desertion" and throw away the opportunity to be with themselves. If you want to test the power of Loneliness, observe how you feel in the rest room. Loneliness is quite different from Emotional Desertion, it's a place or state of being with yourself.
      For me, I will say Loneliness is a place , a realm of distancing yourself from the rowdy world. I call it SOLITUDE. Although, so many people claim that solitude is a kind or type of Loneliness(desertion), but I see Loneliness to be a realm of solitude. I don't believe that Loneliness is harmful to the health as most people do believe. Loneliness is my most place. My place of strength and Joy.
      Loneliness is a quiet place for yourself and your spirit, it is a place of inspiration  and dream, a place of meditation,  a place of deep thought about tomorrow. Great men have used their Lonely days for dreaming and used the remaining days to walk in and work to the actualization of their dreams.
       Loneliness is a place of study, where you study yourself and people around you. As a matter of fact, a lonely man is a man of "improved cognitive state", a man of great concentration, a man of Creativity. Lonely men see the world as vanity. Nothing seems new and surprising to them. All have been experienced in the distance realm of Loneliness. It appears to them as "déjà vu". 
       Considering the poets, Authors,Musicians, Script Writers, especially the Sonnetians , these are people who take Solitude-Loneliness as a great place to be with SELF. When you are with yourself, you interact with your spirit being, you make most of your reasoning ability, sense,thought, and you will come out with a colourful creativity that is most unique.        
       William Wordsworth as a case study. He said " Poetry is a Spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings... Recollected in Tranquility. " Tranquility is a quiet place with one's self. After his aloneness at the lake, he was alone again on his bench, feeling the pleasure of loneliness, he was recollecting the great feelings he had for the daffodils and putting them into writing. If you're not alone for once, you can not imagine the deepest things. Therefore, it is a worthwhile saying that, Artists of all genres actually get there inspiration in their Loneliness(aloneness).
       I don't believe in Loneliness as a bad nature or as an unpleasant response to Emotional torment. Loneliness is a place of pleasure to me. I believe an idle man feels lonely. Even though a friend or spouse breaks your heart or you are disconnected from your social world, be connected to your spirit and make most of your Life. I will choose to be Lonely than to live my life in the rowdy world of NOTHING.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them)  Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

TIME AND SEASON

Time simply means passing periods, that is, the progressive movement of period. Time is progressive. Time is measured in minutes and hours. Basically, The seasons are the main periods into which a year can be divided and which each have their own typical weather conditions.  Season can also refer to the period during which a particular activity or event takes place. Time and season work pari passu. Season expires in the progression of time, and time swallows up each season.     The life we live as human being is for a season (period of time), and whatever we do here on Earth awaits judgement.
