SOLITUDE
“People who take time to be alone usually have depth, originality and quiet reserve.”

I need to be alone. I need time to listen to my thoughts, consider my opinions and strengthen my body. I need to pull away from my hectic life to be alone with me.
As a drinking alcoholic I hated to be alone. I became paranoiac about “leaving the fort” – today I accept that nobody is indispensable and that the world will still be there when I return from the desert!
Today I grow in the stillness of solitude. I can rest in that “still” part of me that is the essential me.
God is very close to me in the silence of self.
