solitude

I think this is the first time I ever realized that I was truly alone(may be not exactly,but still).In pune,climate is very nice,campus is very nice,food is also very nice....But...whats the problem?i am also not understanding.i like to face challenges..so i'm enjoying this loneliness one way...May be lack of friends(@ campus and @ flat) or due to the new life style.But i'm feeling God's protection through many ways.Initially I think,i'll be alone always.But got so many good brothers and sisters here through my own brother.Thanks to you(especially for Arun chettan and Jain chettan) for all the helps....This journey is going on..How long it was,i don't know...
Can i describe something about this(not exactly my condition).But for others..Solitude, unlike loneliness, is filled with peace rather than restlessness. Could it be that the difference between the aloneness of solitude and the aloneness of loneliness is that the former is a filling that we accept, while the latter is an emptiness that we reject? How is it that our aloneness can be both so painful and so beautiful? What makes the difference between aloneness that is solitude and aloneness that is loneliness?Is loneliness a passing experience that we seek to escape? Is it some sort of companion that only makes itself present when we are vulnerable to it?......
Am i confusing you?
Only through accepting and exploring our loneliness that we will become connected with that which matters most-God. That through the often difficult journey of solitude we will find our true identity, and be rightly connected to God, to ourselves, and to others-the holy trinity of relationships. Yet rarely if ever do we meet our loneliness by seeking solitude. We may isolate ourselves from others, but this is a shutting off, rather than a way of seeking. "Thou hast made us for Thyself, O God, and our hearts are restless until they find rest in Thee".

We are all lonely in our own way. If we were never lonely, would we ever reach out to others, or inward to ourselves? I am tempted to say that I know the cure for loneliness: it is called home. But I know that my cure is incomplete. Loneliness is too complex, too personal for easy answers.
