There was a time when this photo really spoke to me. It wasn't long ago when I seemed to be bombarded with the idea of "solitude."....while reading a book, there it was
.... a devotional would speak of the need
.... a quote would come from nowhere.
.... but most of all, I'd find myself wanting to run away for a day, or a week, not understanding what was driving these thoughts.
When I found this photo, I had a longing to be there, to have that book be mine. To have the cup bear my lip print. The photo made me feel comfortable. I decided I needed to write about it on my blog.
But that was then.
Now as I try to express my feelings, I can't. I should have done it when the mood hit. It probably would have made for a more interesting post.
Matthew 14:23 ...He went up into the hills to pray. Night fell while he was there alone.

I totally understand your need for solitude. I have to my own alone time. It keeps me sane and creative. It's an absolute pleasure to hide away with a good book, too. And with a glass of wine and dark chocolate, even better!
But the feelings are inside you, making you the woman you are today......
I can completely understand the need for solitude.I have not had nearly enough of it in the last 7-8 years and it has taken it's toll.Lord willing things will improve.I have not visited here in far too long.Your name flitted through my brain early this morning and thankfully I recalled the name of your blog at the same time!Hope all is well with you.Blessings~Sharon
