Similar ideas to 1. Embracing Solitude
Luckily for us, solitude will always be a choice, not an existence. It’s true that humans are born to be social. But when we find strength — rather than fear — in solitude, we will live far richer lives: with others, and with ourselves.
Solitude removes us from the mindless humdrum of everyday life into a higher consciousness which reconnects us with ourselves and our deepest humanity.
By setting aside dependent emotions and constraining compromises, we free ourselves up for problem solving, creativity, and spirituality.
Our fear of solitude is really fear of boredom.
We want to be entertained, constantly. The alternative — introspection — intimidates us. And so, we drown out our discomfort with distractions. But that doesn’t mean the discomfort will go away.
