what can you do when you feel abandoned in life

[c=BF0000][i]i commonly feel deserted and abandoned.....i live alone in a little flat on benefits, had a hard life battling with mental problems, never found any relationships- the only support network i have are my elderly parents now and they live far away now..

i feel like people don't like me in society and i feel alienated from people...abandoned, deserted, like no one cares?

once my elderly mum and dad are no longer here, what will happen to me? i dread that time[/i][/c]

I find comfort in realizing that in many ways I am alone. And I acknowledge that reality. That reality allows me to look towards myself, to acknowledge my weaknesses but more importantly see my strengths. I often reflect on nature… its mere existence is miraculous. And if I exist, I represent part of that miracle. I am miraculous. And our world of God, has made us beautifully. And we can do as much as we believe we can do. And so, I’ve been an educator for 30 years, a creator, friend, for a lifetime,Not “the best” but I definitely make a difference amongst those in my circle. I have to not care about their opinions of me. Good people get a very bad rap.
