Any of these people sing, write, and mix song selections.
Whenever you feel low not to mention sad, listening as a way to
music can furnish you the demanded boost.

I’m truly enjoying the design and layout of your blog. It’s a
very easy on the eyes which makes it much more pleasant for me to come here and visit more often.
Did you hire out a developer to create your theme?
Great work!

Hi!
I was reading the blog and the comments with a great deal of interest. In India, cities are very crowded and so finding solitude is very difficult as there are many neighbours, many people on the streets and many family members.
I grew up in a family with siblings, parents and grandparents. Solitude was difficult and also seen as strange. However, I remember I did most of my studying at night and was a topper at school. I guess I could do my best work when most of the household was sleeping.

Now being single and with my kid off to work in another city, I am on my own. I initially found it tough to take being alone . But , increasingly I have come to savour my solitude and I agree that I am able to think better and be more creative with my time.I am happy to know that this time will be productive for me if I can use it right.

many years ago i just had to be alone for most of the time.to be with oher people constantly did cost me just to much energie.you need to put your attention to people in your surounding.

i got energie back but also i did need much to give.and i need time for my own thinking.

to be never alone has do cost energie and then there is less time for thinking about new ideas or yourself or what did happen to you latest.this is why some people avoid to be alone.because they don´t like thinking to much.they are even afraid of it.

if we think about us and what happens in this world,then we are forced to built our own opinion.a lot of people just can not see the point of building there own opinion.some people prefer to say what other say or think what other people like them to think.

why is that so??just because we prefer to be lazy and thinking or makeing our own opinion is work and not always very easy.to be on our own is not alway easy.

i know lots of people they are alone or isolated.they are alone because they are sick or old.they would prefer to be with other people.

so i think there are people who need more time on their own and there are others they do realy feel lonely because their is nobody to be with……

or what do you think???

This makes sense to me.

I am in the archetype theory / jungian camp. From socionics or MBTI there are only 2 true genius personality types: INTP & INTJ.

We (INTP/J) fluctuate between our need to be withdrawn in our own thoughts to our shadow types which are the two most social of the personality types – ESFP & ESFJ.

Most people cannot handle true isolation. The sense of ostracism it brings is unbearable for almost anyone. Learning to be okay with being on your own is the path to genius.

This is in response to despondent. I understand your predicament. However, as David so rightly points out in his book, people who are successful have three traits: tenacity, creativity and a positive attitude. You point out all the reasons why you can’t, instead of focusing on what how you can. When teaching someone to tree ski, one of the common problems is that the skiier is afraid of hitting a tree, so they look at the trees. What they need to do is to concentrate at looking at the open spaces between the trees where they want to ski. When they do this, almost without fail they quickly become much more successful tree skiier. What you need to do is to creatively identify within your environment ways you can find solitude. Is there a public library nearby? Is there a park? Can you just go out for a walk?
Despite the seemingly seriousness of your situation, think about Nelson Mandela and the situation he found himself in and how he creatively dealt with it (maybe not the best analogy since I think he was actually forced into solitary confinement but my point is that tenacious, creative, positive people deal with whatever life throws at them. I hope you can.

Very interesting take on Solitude. It has become clear to me now why I cherish “My Solitude”. The following is something I wrote awhile ago concerning this exact thing “My Solitude” by me:

Passing glimpses of perfect bliss
Pulsing rhythms echo in my mind
Searching for that one moment in time
Where have you gone
My Solitude

In my heart there is release
A safe harbor from the turbulent sea of my mind
Healing the wounds from moments past
Until a new one comes along
My Solitude you are my anchor

My being hungers to fill that empty space
Breathe in the wind from that place
Glimmering hope, dances off the shadows within that void
Only your spirit can silence the tremors of this aching heart
Wandering alone amongst the clouds in my eyes
Seeking you my Solitude

My freedom lies far away in the distant gray twilight of you
Lost shadows of time are my tearful friends
Sounds of silence, deafening my ears
Only you can hear
My Solitude

Lost amongst the glass castles of my soul
Towering tributes echoing from that place
Moonlight shadows caressing the heart in your exile
Longing to be near you
My Solitude

Life is but a breath, in the ticking of time
Longing moments, seeking my home with you
Allow this heart to be complete, longing to be whole again
Celebrate with me the joy of living
Be near me
My Solitude of life

Eyes wide apart, never look away
Anymore, than I can forget my heart
Life will not pass me by without you
You are always there
My Solitude you are my dearest companion

I will always remember you with a clenching soul
Smiling memories will hold you near
Your touching soft spirit caresses my mind
My laughter eclipses the larceny of your essence
As I taste the salty tears caressing my lips
My Solitude, you are the ever present, present

There is no moving without you, no future without you
You are where I came from
My past, my present and my life to come
Moments of perfect bliss
Your my only love
My Solitude.

I wait and wonder what fantastic adventures could be mine
Sweep me away within your arms
Far away into myself, your beauty capturing my soul,
I feel the world has stopped.
Your radiance keeps the universe within my grasp.
My Solitude.
