This, exactly this. I just wrote about loneliness as an entrepreneur too, it can be brutal.

Loneliness has been a pretty big enemy in my life for a long time. I dare say it's been my Goliath.

The older I get, the more I realize how my perspective on loneliness is shifting.

Before, it was about people more than acceptance. Then it became about acceptance more than people.

Now, it’s not about people or acceptance — it's about peace and love, no matter how few the company or how great the misunderstanding.

I can't say I've reached the top, but I can say that sometimes the journey itself is lonely too.

Still, I appreciate this post. It's illuminating and comforting, like a warm light on a breezy 50-degree day.

God bless you,

Thank you so much for sharing this so honestly. it's powerful to hear how your perspective has matured over time.

I love how you captured the shift from needing people, to acceptance, and now anchoring in peace and love. It reminds me that true fulfilment is found not in the abundance of company, but in the richness of God's presence.

And you’re absolutely right — sometimes the journey itself is lonely. But even in that, we’re not alone. He walks with us.

God bless you too!

It's still 7:23 in the morning, already in my routine for the day, moved to substack and the first post I'm seeing is this. Does it resonate with me now? Absolutely.

I feel like I've just read one of those beautiful, needed, assuring love letters that people wake up to in the morning, such surreal blessedness!
