I wonder, do people really know how to be alone? There's plenty solitary activities to fill time and space...but being really and truly alone takes practice. No television creating background static. No music. No cleverly crafted words to read in books. No phones. Certainly no e-mail. Just peaceful reflection. Meditation even. A true understanding of your thoughts, desires and hopes.
