I have been rather lonely lately and I was wondering if any of you have any good advice. I am trying to stay motivated and keep busy but it is really hard for me to get motivated and I just feel like there isn't enough time in a day.
 
I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way.

Do you have any goals in your life?
Maybe try to understand what do you want from your life and try to work on it. Every decision we make affects our life and us- in some way-good or bad.

Make sure that you find some nice friends that might help you. If you don't have any friends, but wanna share some things that are on your mind-you can write me.

I do understand you-it is really hard to stay motivated whn you don't feel like it. But you have to find some strenght inside yourself.
 
I know that feeling very well. Too well. I have certain goals in life and concentrate all my energy on those goals. Those goals include being less lonely in the future so. That helps.
 
WORK OUT! ^_^ sorry i've just learned a super solution for feeling down. when i work out first thing before i start my day everything else just kinda falls together. the hardest thing for me to do is make myself work out so anything else in the day is easy and i feel like i can get stuff done. ^-^.

as for feeling lonely. are you in any clubs? join a club in your community or maybe take a class, photography? or dancing? or martial arts? it'll give you a group to easily make friends in and make you feel like you're doing something good.

hope this helps! God bless!!!
 
The things I do currently in my days are work part time and hang out with friends. I want to do more productive things. I want to start getting creative too. But everything seems to cost money. I want to get into creative writing again and scrapbooking. I want to work on decorating my newly cleaned room. I am trying to work on setting some solid goals to look forward to and work towards. I guess I will just try to find ways to get myself to work out every morning.
 
Kindhearted sending *hugs* your way. I understand. My divorce is just going through and I'm alone for the first time in a decade more or less. I too try to keep busy, but as you said, it's very difficult to get "motivated". What you are doing already is good. One thing that sucks but that we have to get used to is that loneliness is a part of life. We will never completely escape it. That's a long dark tunnel to stare down, but God has a plan for our loneliness too. Coming from a sister, guard your heart. Loneliness can cause you to do things you never imagined you were capable of.

Being active and interested in things is a great way to keep your mind healthy and happy....good for you in coming up with great ideas. You'll learn new things and meet new people. It helps to make life interesting :).

And it keeps away depression too. A mother's advice: eat right, get enough sleep, and exercise everyday ;)
