Trying times, there’s been a lot going on in the world; foreign and domestic. Amongst friends and family the type of information shared these days are almost always about the government, wars, and the economy. We are constantly bombarded with where do we stand politically on these subject matters.
In some sense, there are so many distractions of these sort of things; we ought to bare the question: are taking care of our mental state? Doubt and sense of belonging is lost in the garbage of conversation jargon. People align their friendships with the political beliefs they have these days. No common sense on values and actual self interests – we don’t have friends that alike with common hobbies any longer but rather that of political values.
We are complicated beings but our mind frame is simple. Not in the sense of our intelligence but rather, in the sense, that our abilities to enjoy things are not so refined. As people, we may lack the sensibility to prioritize the finer things in life – this maybe due to the burden or the weight and pressures of the laborious life that we lead.
The inability to have a refined taste in the quality of life may lead to doubt and self-worth. Someone that work in the service industry for a long time may have a testimony to this phenomenon. Servicing others can have a degrading effect on the worth of the self.
Secondly, what makes it worst is the direct impact on a person’s ability to belong in a social setting, whether physically or not, the issue is that people become isolate. In some sense force to recluse into a state of non sociable. And, in the extreme sense to the point of irreversible unapproachability.
Case # 1 : transients that have conversations with themselves.
Case # 2 : the bullied kid who no one sees
Case # 3 : the 40 year old virgin that still lives with his mother not to take care of her but is dependent on her to exist.
A sense of belonging and the extraction of self doubt is import to help cultivate a healthy state of an immature mind or simple frame of thought as we noted earlier. We can bare a witness to this in the differ case scenarios listed above.
The resolve is less complex as it takes to make the problem to develop and thrive. We learned that through social interactions and finding common place and commonalities amongst friends and family the isolated individual will most likely rebuild trust and confidence. Even a simple affirmation from a positive reassurance from a friend or family may make all the difference.
