Solitude

I was raised to know solitude as a bad thing. The thing which makes you unhappy, makes others look down upon you and gets you stereotyped as an outcast.

As a grown adult with a full time job and a kid to raise, I now realize solitude is golden. It is the calming factor which helps me stay grounded in reality. It is good as I can hear my own voice and go through my own thoughts to bring clarity and peace in my life.
