Day 16: Loneliness on the Path

“To walk inward often means walking alone — but never without guidance.” — Walk the Hidden Path

Teaching

There is a kind of loneliness no one talks about — the loneliness that comes when you no longer fit inside the life you once lived.

You outgrow the conversations. The roles. The distractions that once felt like home.

And for a while, it feels like no one sees you.

But this loneliness is not failure. It is sacred.

Because you are not *without* connection. You are in a deep reorientation — from outward belonging to inward truth.

The soul doesn’t crave company. It craves authenticity.

And while it’s tender to be here, in this threshold, it is also holy.

You are not alone. You are with your Self. With presence. With the countless others who have walked this path in silence before you.

Keep going. The emptiness will not last. But the truth you uncover in it — will.
