You Are Alone, and You Are Connected
I invite you to embrace your isolation as a time of self-exploration. Use this time to do something you have always wanted to do. Call a friend that you haven’t spoken to in a long time. Call a sibling that you have lost touch with. Meditate in the morning to get in touch with your Source. When you do these things, you will make a tremendous discovery. You will discover that you are not alone. You have yourself, and you have your Creator.

I was sitting on my back porch two days ago watching the ducks swimming on our pond. I was reminded about how nature takes care of itself. I was reminded that the ducks don’t need to worry about anything.
Then why did I go to bed the other night worrying about my finances and my physical and emotional health? Why was I worried about things when I know that I am being taken care of?
Lots of people are worrying about these things right now. Our world is experiencing a shift in consciousness, the likes of none of us alive have experienced. There seems to be a concern by lots of us about how and when this virus will end.
The feeling of being alone is present with a lot of us right now. We are alone at home, alone with work, alone in our cars, alone in our parks, and alone in our minds.
Despite being physically alone, I propose that we are not alone at all. We are always in the presence of a loving and supportive Creator. We all have a different name for that Presence. The name doesn’t really matter, as much as knowing that we are being taken care of by a caring Power that wants the best for us.
It is powerful to be OK being alone. There was a time in my life when being physically alone would have drove me nuts. I had to be with someone in order to feel like I mattered.
Have you ever sat in a room alone, and felt completely comfortable? Do you like your own presence?
COVID-19 is helping us to find the answer to these questions.
A friend said to me recently that being in social isolation is bringing up all these issues about self-worth and self-esteem that they thought they resolved.
When you are alone for days or weeks at a time you will find out whether you like yourself or not. When there is nowhere to go, you will discover parts of yourself that were buried by the busyness of your life.
I speak from experience here. My life has been so busy lately. I didn’t know what it would be like to spend a Saturday night sitting on the couch watching tv with my wife. It never happened. Now it’s happening. I must say that it’s quite beautiful!
I invite you to embrace your isolation as a time of self-exploration. Use this time to do something you have always wanted to do. Call a friend that you haven’t spoken to in a long time. Call a sibling that you have lost touch with. Meditate in the morning to get in touch with your Source.
When you do these things, you will make a tremendous discovery. You will discover that you are not alone. You have yourself, and you have your Creator.
You will make it through this challenging time of social distancing. You are still connected. It’s in a different way than usual. But I believe that your life will be richer because of this experience. You might even find that you are a wonderful person to be with.
