Loneliness
Is

An island
In
The middle
Of
A sea of people

Loneliness is part of being human.It reminds us that we are not

Complete in ourselves.
~David Runcorn

People are lonely because they build

Walls instead of bridges.
~J.Newton

Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment
that we're not alone.”
~Orson Welles

Native American Prayer

Oh, Great Spirit
Whose voice I hear in the winds,
And whose breath gives life to all the world,
hear me, I am small and weak,
I need your strength and wisdom.
Let me walk in beauty and make my eyes ever behold
the red and purple sunset.
Make my hands respect the things you have
made and my ears sharp to hear your voice.
Make me wise so that I may understand the things
you have taught my people.
Let me learn the lessons you have
hidden in every leaf and rock.
I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother,
but to fight my greatest enemy - myself.
Make me always ready to come to you
with clean hands and straight eyes.
So when life fades, as the fading sunset,
my Spirit may come to you without shame.

(translated by Lakota Sioux Chief Yellow Lark in 1887)
