Unprompted Journal Entry
I miss my moments of solitude. I miss being able to step away from the chaos of home life. I’m not an introvert but I think we could all periodically use time to just be with our thoughts. Sometimes I like sitting at Starbucks, I’m around others, so I’m not truly alone, yet no one is bothering me, and I can write. Sometimes I like going to the botanical garden and just sitting and being able to reground myself in the middle of a city. Then there are the long drives down I-10 in solitude. Me, my thoughts, the music and rumble of my engine. Even though I relish those moments of solitude, I miss being around the people I love and having someone to talk to.
