Lonliness brings chaos into your life.We’re starting a new six-week series talking about why life gets hard, whether in content creation or just life in general. The first thing that makes life more difficult is when we are isolated. Looking at the Book of Judges, there was no authority and accountability in Israel, and everyone did what was right in his own eyes. When you are by yourself, that is where things go completely crazy. This is the "chaos of isolation."People tend to think that if they are left alone, or if they are given more freedom, they will be able to guide themselves into happiness. But the truth is, we need walls, fences, and an edge to the sandbox so we know where we're playing. Being left alone doesn't lead to flourishing; it leads to burnout.- Left to yourself, you will go crazy. Having zero rules is actually pretty dangerous.- Retreating into a bubble because of past hurt often leads to falling into temptation, heresy, and folly because there is no one to bring correction.- Trying to create without support sucks.- You have to make the choice to find a healthy church, Discord, or friend.- You don't need a million friends.
