Life is lonely, sad & full of suffering

[CelticQueen17]

I am having a day where I literally feel as though I may have been let down by every partner ( family-friends-lovers-coworkers) that I have ever had. 

Does anyone relate to this simple statement??

And that feeling is ok. Accept it. Be aware of it. Awareness of the body is showing love to the body. Life is a lot of things. But when you accept and become content with all of those things you can learn to appreciate and enjoy every bit of what it offers.

@CelticQueen17 Times when I've felt similarly, sure. It's one of the worse feelings in my experience. Of course, it comes from our own expectations placed on others. In order to be let down, you have to expect something of a person. Consider what those things are, that you've been let down on. Other people are who they are, as long as we don't think they should do x, y, z, we won't be let down. Life may still be full of loneliness sadness and suffering in other ways, but it's a good step.

Every day.

But it's the sort of thing that will only slowly destroy all the joy in life, if you let it.  Life's too precious to let it be spoilt by the inadequacies and stupidity of other people. Give yourself space to be sad today, but smile tomorrow.

Regarding your title thats not life thats projection of your mind giving meaning to the circumstances...what do you mean let down by every partner?

They didn’t meet your expectations. Let go of those, accept them, and you, exactly how you are. 

This is the cornerstone of separatism, the belief that happiness will ever come from another person, or an object. 

The sooner you realize it won’t, the better.
