This Sunday, be an ‘autophile’ for a while!
Try and take a little time to embrace a little solitude and me-space – for the body, mind and soul.
It’s not a selfish act, or a luxury – it’s a necessity! Especially in this apocalypse 😉✨
Some are uneasy with being alone, feeling lonely perhaps or a similar uncomfortable feeling. But sitting with your emotions, a journal and maybe some music, provides a fabulous opportunity for self discovery, replenishment and peace of mind.
And this is to the benefit of all, once we return to the busy demands of the everyday…
As some wise person said:
“Loneliness is feeling pain because you’re alone. Solitude is feeling peace because you’re alone”.
Know the difference. ✨💫✨

Note to Readers:
For a very long time I have preferred my own company. Yesterday when I was taking a very long walk through one of my favorite woods, I was completely alone except for passing a few people… 11 in total and 4 dogs. That was during 2+ hours of walking in an area easily accessed from a variety of points.
What do I do when I’m alone? Talk to myself. That may sound “crazy” but I’ve done it all my life. I work out problems. Ask questions. Talk to animals and trees. Look up at the sky to watch the buzzards flying in the thermals. Staring out across the great expanse of marsh. Observing interesting trees. Composing photos or my blog. No, I’m not lonely when I am being an autophile… I am very much at peace.
