Being lonely is nothing to be embarrassed about. And when you’re on a spiritual path, you find yourself resonating with fewer and fewer vibrations of others. It can become uncomfortable to feel disconnected from the rest of the world. But there’s no going back to the way things used to be. I think you know that already.
As you elevate your consciousness, it becomes agonizing to be in society. You simply can’t become “one of them” again. The same activities don’t excite you and the same conversations don’t interest you — those were appealing to a mundane life. To join the crowd you have to play a role, and that’s uncomfortable. To be a human participating in this game of society, you have to muster up a lot of strength and perseverance.
But being lonely doesn’t have to be bad all the time. You have to learn to integrate the sadness and hopelessness. You have to sit with it and hold space for it. Things will never be the way they used to be. Perhaps once, you had many friends and enjoyed an existence of great social connections. But as your ego “dies” you learn that few of these people were true friends and others have no place in the next part of your journey. Maybe you can start to see that this is a good thing.
This is not a story of arrogance or elitism — remember to always have compassion for those who are vibrating at a lower frequency than you.
As you “ascend” toward enlightenment and a higher state of being, you embody an energy that is of a higher vibration. You become something different. You evolve. Then, it’s like you’ve moved ahead of the group. Other souls on this journey with you may seem to fall behind but that’s only because you’ve made progress at a heightened speed. You find yourself feeling alone because it’s lonely at the top.
Think of a flock of sheep that is moving as a whole — someone needs to be at the front, right? Maybe sometimes it feels perilous and uncertain to be ahead of the pack, but it’s an important job for the guidance and protection of the flock. It can feel weird to be “out in front” because there are fewer traveling at the same level as you.
So, don’t let it weigh you down too much. Focus on your flock. Become the shepherd if you feel comfortable with that. More and more of us will wake up, and you can help others join the head of the herd. You have a new purpose. The purpose is to spread more light in the world, not to get depressed about the changes you’re enduring.
