Feeling Lonely Is Not Being Alone

Dear Readers,

If you have ever felt alone, betrayed, or forgotten then this message is to you. The truth is that at one point in life everyone feels lonely, but that doesn't mean you were alone. Even though we may feel alone and forgotten by those around us, the fact of the matter is that we weren't truly alone. For one, Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ were always walking beside us every step of the way. During the times we feel most alone, that is when they are there the most, guiding us and lifting us up.

In addition to God and Christ being there for us, I can guarantee there is at least one person out there who always had you on their mind and was always there to lift you up in ways that you may not have realized until later on, or maybe haven't come to realize yet. Maybe that person was your mom, a sister, a significant other, a friend, or even a stranger that saw you walk past them on the street, no matter who it may have been, the amazing thing is that you were never actually alone, even when you were at your lowest.

Next time you are going through a hard time remember that there are people that are there for you. Also, remember that everyone has their own struggles, lets all try a little harder to look at those around us, strangers or friends, and realize we aren't the only ones with hard times. We are all in need of a kind gesture every so often, so next time you are walking on campus, give that girl a smile, say hi to that person that sat next to you on the train, write a kind note to a coworker and leave it on their desk. Any little act of kindness of letting someone know that there are people out there who care, not only lifts those around us, but it also helps us power through our own personal struggles with the knowledge that we helped someone have a little bit of a brighter day.

Thanks for Reading,

Until Next time
