Solitude

The world is a dark and selfish place, Society creates unrealistic demands on us and these drive us to become pro-solitude.

Society tells us who we are and how we should live, but solitude shows us who we are and who we want to be. We like being alone but not lonely, we can think for ourselves and be ourselves without being judged on our race, religion or education.

Ellen Burstyn said “What a lovely surprise to discover how unlonely being alone can be”
I think the vast majority of people here on CS and the blogs are pro-solitude but never lonely here.

What do you think?


PS Cows don’t feel pain when you milk them.

Getting back to your blog map grin

a balance of solitude and social interaction with real people is needed.

This to me, is my answer, even of I just dart in and out of REAL grin life i do and get dressed in a smile.

A smile a day keeps the doc awaylaugh laugh
Yes Redex. A smile is more than enough. Nada else required anywhere.
Snooks, You have been deprived of a gentle man, try some one who wont bite.

Ob, Im just in compliance with the current comments, supply and demand thing.
Red, Yes, even darting in and out of reality is better than not darting in and out of reality.
Some people have a greater need for solitude than others. It is just how they are and not at all a way to aviod being part of the big bad world filled with evil people. It is an introvert thing I think. Never thought about the possibility of cows getting hurt by milking. As you have cleared that up I need not spare time wondering about it in future.
Mm. R u saying that ur not available but do (bite). Mind u a little nibble here and there, might be yummy ?
Howzit Ekself, Solitude and being an Introvert are almost the same thing. Glad you wont have to waste future time wondering if cows feel pain when being milked, I know its pressing issue with most people.
God-dam-it- map I got hurt being milkedrolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing scold no not a cow A MUM rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
Snooks, There is a long waiting list for my mammalian therapy services, I dont bite or cause pain unless specifically requested by my clients or their Lawyers.
"Lend yourself to others, but give yourself to yourself.”

When we are accustomed to “loneliness”, we are in agreement with our mind and our values— because we always have to answer ourselves at the end of the day.

We should never consider outgrowing loneliness, and never hoped to find someone to fill that space. By expecting to find someone to fill the gap, definitely it will grow into being alone.

When you have to fight for the things that you want, you’re less likely to take them for granted.loneliness has a way of modeling and also making who we are.

never had a problem with been "lonely" but i have never been alone.

Bogart, Well said, all exactly what I believe.cheers
Mm. I could offer my technical expertise, but we might be on a par. Now the mammalian services my kids enjoyed for very many months each. If only babies could talk !
Mm. Then I must return the effort:- U may do the same. Now who will be 1st ?
Ok Mm. I was alone for more than a decade. I got to know myself exceptionally well, my abilities, where to draw the line and who to allow close and not.
