When we examine the moments, acts, and statements of all kinds of people -- not only the grief and ecstasy of the greatest poets, but also the huge unhappiness of the average soul…we find, I think, that they are all suffering from the same thing. The final cause of their complaint is loneliness.
From “God's Lonely Man," an essay by Thomas Wolfe
I'm lonely as fuck. Ain't too proud to admit it. That's why I find myself right here on tuscl on a beautiful evening where it's not too late out instead of with a loved one, which isn't something that I have.
Not sure EVERYONE suffers loneliness on a very profound level, whether they be a relative success or failure in life.
Thats why I'm in TJ.
A Thomas Wolfe quote! Look homeward, angel.
But does it have to be our existence?
I want to work towards a world where it won't be.
How can you do that make everyone not lonely?
At some level, this might explain why many of us participate in this hobby.
Generally the argument is that people create gods and God in order to reflect their own consciousness off of. Otherwise they just could not take the angst. People need a security blanket, or they feel that they do.
Though I'm not encouraging Christianity, this book, drawing largely on Existential Theology, speaks to this and want people to move beyond Theism.
