What does solitude mean
to you? Is it the quiet of nature, or is it just doing something
different from the ordinary.
I know for me, solitude
can be sitting somewhere quiet and enjoying the surroundings. I love
being able to sit on a patio and watch my surroundings while having a
meal. The best patio is somewhere where there is water close by, and
you can watch the activity on the water. For some people, it is a
walk along a nature trail and being able to escape all the sounds
that we hear all the time now.
Have you ever sat on a
dock and listened to the sounds of loons, especially on a misty
morning? The sound of loons can be such a calming sound, even when it
isn’t misty out. Just hearing them communicate can be very
enjoyable and give you the chance to appreciate nature. Another
sound that is very nice is a rippling brook as the water simply flows
its way over the different rocks. Sometimes it can be as
simple as putting on my headphones and escaping all the different
sounds that are around me. Having a chance to escape from everything
can really hope you regain a focus that you lose.
The most amazing time
is when I can simply just lose myself into what I am doing, and it
really doesn’t matter what is going on around it. I can be sitting
in a very busy environment, but when I am happy doing my own thing, I
can lose myself into it and not really hear all the noises that are
going on around me.
So solitude can really
vary for the person and even a given situation. A simple little
thing like being happy where you are and your company can help make
the biggest different.
