MY SENTIMENTS EGGZACKLY......

“Ordinarily, I go to the woods alone, with not a single friend, for they are all smilers and talkers and therefore unsuitable. I don’t really want to be witnessed talking to the catbirds or hugging the old black oak tree. I have my way of praying, as you no doubt have yours. Besides, when I am alone I can become invisible. I can sit on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds, until the foxes run by unconcerned. I can hear the almost unhearable sound of the roses singing. If you have ever gone to the woods with me, I must love you very much.” Mary Oliver ~ Swan: Poems and Prose Poems

I love this..... wonderful sentiment about the beauty of solitude! Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

At one with nature, just wonderful. I have hugged a tree or two in my time, and felt the better for doing so.

I have always enjoyed being alone and just listening to the silence. I remember my Mom asking me why I was just sitting outside doing nothing and I would tell her I was listening to the silence. Alfie did the same thing, asked why I was just sitting alone doing nothing. Guess it is just normal.............
