solitude.


"No man should go through life without once experiencing healthy, even bored solitude in the wilderness, finding himself depending solely on himself and thereby learning his true and hidden strength." So says Jack Kerouac. Solitude, deliciously free from social obligation, is most appealing as the highest form of meditation--quiet, private, without judgment...ah, the quiet of being alone.
