“Feeling Lonely? Taoist Teachings on Friendship and Energy Fields

Is Having Few Friends a Bad Thing?

A woman once asked me to customize a bracelet for her.

Her request?

“I just want more friends.”

I asked if she meant to become more charming — or better at communicating.

She shook her head.

“I don’t want to be more likable. I just want more people in my life.”

🧘 The Taoist View

From a Taoist lens, having few friends… is often a blessing.

People with strong spiritual energy — those who practice cultivation deeply — usually don’t attract crowds.
Their energy field is powerful, but not comfortable to casual connection.

📉 Less Noise, Stronger Field

If your social circle is small, it means:

• You’re less influenced by random outside energy
• You have more space to build your own energy field
• You’re less likely to be drained or distorted by others’ magnetic chaos

Sometimes, when a friend suddenly drifts away,

it’s not your fault.

It’s life making space.
Something you need to face alone is coming.
That friend might block your path — unknowingly.

🧩 Like Building With LEGO

Your energy field is like a massive LEGO set.

Every piece you need already exists.
Those who leave?
They were just the wrong pieces for the current stage.

💎 A Quick Note on Jade

By the way — it’s a shame Westerners don’t like jade.

Jade is an incredible material — soft, pure, and spiritually adaptive.
It can be worn for decades.
Over time, it develops a connection to your body and energy.

And most importantly:

Jade recognizes only one owner.

You raise it like a companion.
It becomes yours in ways few other things can.

Isn’t that… kind of beautiful?
