Feeling Abandoned Sometimes?

I think sometimes we feel like we have been forgotten by God or the Universe or whoever or whatever it is that we maybe once believed in. Perhaps we feel like we can never be forgiven by a wrong we have done and that we deserve to be punished by our circumstances or by God or by whatever.
Is this really what was intended for us? Yes, maybe we have felt abandoned by parents, spouses, family, friends, but that does not mean we have no value. I have had family members who have just sat around and waited to die because they felt that they did something wrong, or they felt that they were little or no use to society any longer.
Every person has value and beauty and sometimes we might have to look hard to see it. Their beauty could be covered up by bushes, anger, scar tissue that leaves them torn and broken. But every person have value no matter how old, how many mistakes they have made, how many times they have fallen, how many scars they have.
We must build each other up in this world. We do not have a long time. If we can help lighten someone's load, or help straighten someone's path, it will be a much more beautiful world for everyone. We all have scars no matter how we try to hide them. Let's help heal each other with grace and love, and see the connections start to occur and feelings of abandonment dissappear into the horizon.
Peace
