Dear Rishab:
I hope this letter finds you in fine fettle. I am writing to you to share with you a very touching experience I recently had. I got an opportunity to visit an old age home. It is a kind of home for those old people who for some reasons cannot stay with their grown-up children or those who don’t have any family member to care of them.
I felt very emotional interacting with an old lady. Although she is an affluent woman, she has to live in the home because both her daughters are married and well-settled. Her husband passed away long ago. She said she had opted to live at the Home for many facilities such as safety, security, lodging and boarding, and the most important thing-- company of peers.
I was just so sad and depressed to see first time in my life there are such homes where the old people have to live without families. I personally feel it is very lonely there. The old people need their sons, daughters, grandchildren to live happily. Why is it that in our country the old fathers and mothers cannot live with their married daughters’ families?
I have decided that I shall be visiting the old age home regularly to give company to the old people living there. That’s all from my side. Give regards to uncle and aunt. Do write back.
Yours affectionately,
Gibran
Answer:
Dear Beloved,
My heart couldn’t help but break when you said, you are surrounded by friends yet lonely. It made me really sad. I guess it really is true when the Bible says that we belong to one body made of many parts. And, if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it (1 Corinthians 12:26). So, I really felt sad when I read those words from you. I wondered, “Why and how can she be lonely? She is so friendly and has so many friends.” I couldn’t understand it but I wanted to comfort you.
However, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to truly relate to your loneliness and I didn’t want to diminish how you feel. I understand that though we all experience loneliness at a point or degree in life, I might not be able to fully and specifically relate to you. So, I tried brushing it aside hoping that you will come to find friends that would fill the void of loneliness in your heart. However, the Holy Spirit wouldn’t agree with me and kept you in my heart.
He reminded me that there is someone who can fully relate to you. Someone who gets everything you are feeling and long for. His name is Jesus. Let me share with you how lonely it was for Jesus on this earth. When we read the Bible, it sure doesn’t appear that Jesus was lonely. It seemed like He had it all together. But if we pay careful attention as we study the Word, we will see signs that Jesus felt lonely too. Jesus had left his heavenly home and divinity to dwell amongst us. He wasn’t of this world, and no-one could fully relate to His situation. In fact, the people He had come down to save did not recognize him and persecuted him instead.You are eternally loved, darling. Stay blessed.
Your Friend,
Esther
