#97 Not loneliness. Solitude.
ByLukasAll of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone
Blaise Pascal, https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/19682-all-of-humanity-s-problems-stem-from-man-s-inability-to-sitWe often equate sitting quietly in a room alone with loneliness: a word with a negative emotional charge.

Solitude can give relief of the pressure to be constantly “socializing” (through social media apps or in real life).

Space you can use to hear the thoughts in your head and the feelings in your body.
Thoughts and feelings that can tell you what’s truly important to you.
And then you realize that what’s truly important to you is nothing new.
It’s something you already knew, before you learned not to listen.
