My guess is that most people ARE afraid and alone. First they are afraid that they are not good enough, and alone, because if you feel inadequate, you rarely can share that with anyone. I am sorry, but I am going to vent a bit...

If you feel positive and good about yourself, you look at the world and behaive and expect it to be good and positive. Unfortunately, many of our generation has DONE little to feel good about themselves.

The left wing humanistic movement and modern psychology has raised a generation of people who demand respect and are told they are unique and wonderful, but have no real sense of self worth from actually having done anything worthy or praise or respect.

So we are left with a society that is uncertain and suspicious which leads to fear and loneliness. We live in an unside down world; where "bad" means good and "wicked" no longer means something evil but something that's great. Our chidren listen to trash like Snoop Doggy and watch MTV for hours; dressing, acting and becomeing more like whores and pimps.

But there is hope, not all of us were raised with this system. My parents had very old fashion ideas of what was right, wrong, and proper. I often hear people say that their children are so disrespectful and sullen and out of control, they throw up their hands and say they can do nothing.

The problem was precisesly because they, in fact, did nothing; none of the hard work of instilling work values and the need to resist instant gratification. They ignored the need to say NO to your child and the children became the rulers in their homes.

The easy "love" of spoiling your child and giving it everything it asks for, has created a society where actors and socialites are idolized, whorshipped, and honored above teachers and doctors.

So if you look for people who are self assured with purpose and a strong sense of right and wrong, you will still find people who are not afraid and not alone.

Negative past experiences, loss of loved ones, loss of a job, etc. People are afraid to put their feelings " out " to others. Today's' lifestyle is so busy, too busy!! People are stressed/burnt out. If there is too much negativity, it is difficult to have a positive outlook. Remember, during younger years, we couldn't wait to become a " grown up". Well, for some, being a grown up can s**k. But, people need to find things that they enjoy doing, stress relievers. Life is not easy but, you have to take things in stride. There are many things in life that we have no control over. My boyfriend, within less than a year, lost 3 loved ones: his Mother, Brother and, Nephew( who he was close to ). Very sad and heartbreaking. Anyway, these are just my thoughts in regards to your question (s).

What people, Jack? I'm not afraid or alone, are you? If so, consider giving service to others. Contact your local volunteer agency, or be of service in your church, or community organization. It gets one out of self and into others in a giving way.

Because they haven't taken the time to get to know themselves. If you look at yourself objectively, and take note of your weaknesses and fears; you can find ways to overcome them. Doing this will give you the strength to look to the future with confidence not fear.

Sometimes ALONE is a good thing.

Today's society. A computer instead of a face to face visit with a friend. The fear of being hit by a car backing out of a parking spot while they are on the telephone...Scary!!!! The fear of being rejected. Plain and simple.

sometimes that they dont have self esteem, introvert, and dont trust anyone, or they been hurt before. but somehow they have to experience this kind of problem to build they confidence and personality. so for this kind of people they have to try to be open and they have to lear trusting other.
