Loneliness is an illusion, thank goodness

Early in the week I felt despondent, lonely even, which is unusual for me - I am surrounded by loved ones and I am very self-contained. I phoned a friend who is struggling and we shared our feelings, read to each other from spiritual books. When the call ended I felt better.

My reading talked of loneliness not being due to 'any separative spirit but to the conditions of the Way itself'. The Way is God's plan, and our life purpose. The Way might seem very hard at times but we will succeed if we stay positive, seek support and have faith. There is no separative spirit: we are never alone, on Earth or in spirit.
