Cure for Lonesomeness

Denver Republican

To be doomed to lonesome insulation from the cheering love, sympathy and confidence of those about us, is one of the penalties of sinning. The dreariest form of exile is to mingle with many people daily, but never to meet one of them heart to heart, in sympathetic sweet accord.

Every sin a man commits helps to set him apart from his fellow men. He can not be at ease with those he would like to have for friends, because he cannot open his heart. It is tightly locked by guilty secrets.

Poor lonesome sinners get together and try to be merry, but the only society for each one of the miserable company is his own impure character. In the vain attempt to escape the society of their own thoughts, men busy themselves with folly.
