Each human being comes into the world alone, travels through life as a separate person, and ultimately dies alone. Buddhist monk Ajahn Sumedho taught: "We suffer a lot in our society from loneliness. So much of our life is an attempt to not be lonely: 'Let's talk to each other; let's do things together so we won't be lonely.' And yet inevitably, we are really alone in these human forms. We can pretend; we can entertain each other; but that's about the best we can do. When it comes to the actual experience of life, we're very much alone; and to expect anyone else to take away our loneliness is asking too much." Psychologist Abraham Maslow explains that, "Anyone who attempts to make an emergency picture into a typical one, and who will measure all of man's goals and desires by his behavior during extreme physiological deprivation, is certainly blind to many things. It is quite true that man lives by bread alone — when there is no bread". You are not the only one in the world who experiences this. I can share with you my experiences, my two husbands who died, my Son who suffered a severe stroke, and so on, but you will remain alone within your own set of experiences.
