The Loneliness

 

I wonder if there are many people, who feel lonely nowadays. In spite of the fact that I live in a big city, and there are with many people surrounding me everyday, I feel that I am so alone. It's like as if nobody cares for no one anyone in big cities. It's This is interesting. Is this situation typical only for Moscow?, Or it's is it everywhere? [This way is better in print. "It's everywhere?" is used in speech spoken with a different intonation, indicating a question.]  BTW, alone and loneliness are not the same thing.

The Loneliness

I wonder if there are many people, who feel lonely nowadays. In spite of the fact that I live in a big city, and there are many people surrounding me everyday, I feel that I am so alone. It's like nobody cares for no one in big cities. It's interesting. Is this situation typical only for Moscow, or it's like that everywhere?

 

I felt that loneliness when I was in New York. The worst kind of loneliness is when you are in a crowd. You realize that no one shares your point of view, your thoughts, your virtues. Suddenly you realize that no matter how many people there are, you have nothing in common with them and you feel lonely.

 

But I guess the situation is similar in big cities, where modern life transforms everyone into aliens and we forget humanity and our merits which make us human.

Yeah, that's quite common. But, in my opinion, we should all embrace loneliness: sometimes it's good to have some time for ourselves. I find it quite relaxing when I wander around my city alone, earphones on and plenty of time to think about whatever I want: it's something you wouldn't have time to do, if you spent most of your time surrounded by people you know. Sot, think of loneliness as a great opportunity to think about you, your life, your interests, and so on :)

It is very common, we are social beings living in large groups and communities but our busy and rushed lives in they cities made us less caring about others, big cities tend to be like that...

Loneliness is a psychological problem, so it isn't matter where you live - in the city or in the country side. Although, There is people solve all problems by drinking some alcohol in an ordinary russian village. So, they have a very narrow circle of communication and in general, they haven't any choice. I live in SPb and have a same problem with quality of communication. Of course, we have ways, which real helpful in finding good friends,but first of all, we should change our vision of life. Don't listen post rock and something like that)
