As the weeks go on with the enforced isolation for so many
of us, in spite of the many ways in which it is possible for us to still keep
in touch with one another, I think loneliness is becoming more of an issue. It
now seems clear that it is going to be many more weeks before what used to be 'normal' ways of life can be resumed. I am missing the everyday contact with
colleagues and friends, as I am sure we all are. Just being together physically
with others is a joyful part of everyday life, which Zoom and other on-line
meetings cannot quite replace!
However, for those who believe in the inner world, there is
the added dimension of heavenly companionship which can bring great comfort and
consolation. It can be just as real - more so actually I think -
than on-line meetings. The extra quiet times which we may be
able to experience now, can bring a greater opportunity to tune in to a
heavenly on-line meeting!
White Eagle reminds us often in his teaching of the help
which is always there for us all at the inner level, if we are able to open
ourselves to it. For example in SEEKING SERENITY he says: 'The
Brotherhood wil never intrude upon your wish for isolation, but if you open
your heart and say "come", they come so joyously and will never fail to do so.'
So, if you are feeling lonely as you read this, I hope these words will comfort
you, and you will be able to feel the heavenly love and light enfold you like a
warm hug!
