How to Be Alone



Figuring out how to be alone was one of my goals this summer. It's certainly been a struggle and I've not yet reached a state of complete comfort in being alone, but I've definitely made progress. I take myself out on dates a few times a week and sit in coffee shops or book stores by myself. I've always been a highly social creature but I think remembering how to enjoy those moments of silence is important for my own sanity.

  1. the distinction between loneliness and solitude is an important one. Sometimes people who don't need people are the happiest people.
