sliced bread #2

Some look at things that are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were and ask why not.

(solitude)

--------------------

in a world of iPods and cellphones, with so much emphasis on relationships...
and such fear of being alone, we have lost touch with the value of solitude...

"Our culture is way out of balance. It's almost an illness to spend time with ourselves, alone. The vision I waited for I hoped would in some way transform my life never came. Instead there arose in me a deep sense that all of the things I experience — the joyful and the painful, light and dark, courage and fear, kindness and meanness — are all part of me."
