I love my alone time and I swear that I could never get too much, but I do love interacting with others. Powerfully introspective write.
Take care,
Sherry

I once wrote a sermon on the difference between solitude and lonliness. I think you've said it better than that sermon.

Happy New Year. I'll say a special prayer for you at Midnight.

A profound write my friend...alone time in small amounts is great, but too much could consume one...My mom has been divorced since I was a year old, she will be seventy next year and still works five days a week as a caretaker for a dear family friend, is active in church, community, and with family. Many that are not alone don't understand her drive, but she says it keeps her young and helps make the evenings at home easier to bear. A great write my friend, one with much wisdom! Wishing a Happy New Year!
Blessings,
Joyce B.
