I like to sit quietly. When I watch a movie I don’t like to discuss it with anyone. No talking. Occasionally I watch the same movie over and over again. I prefer watching movies alone. I prefer reading alone. I prefer walking alone. Alone I go along very well. I’m looking for nobody, and I hope nobody is looking for me.

My point stands. Not healthy to keep all that bottled up. Release. Release. Or you will blow.

I like a mix … Sometimes alone, sometimes with. All about balance… for me.

I feel so comfortable being alone. I certainly wasn’t always that way. And it’s where I have learned so much about who I am and what I am capable of. But then again, being with others can mirror our darkest secrets ha!! We def need both 😊

Two places I love to be alone — in my studio. In my kitchen. Oh. And the bathroom too but Beaumont the Sheepadoodle sometimes makes that impossible. He’s even taught himself to slide the door to the master ensuite open. 🙂
I also love walking alone. And walking with dear friends — especially in these times of Covid when walking outside is the only place I get to spend quality time with those outside our ‘bubble’.
My beloved and I watch movies together in bed on separate laptops — he watches ‘dickflicks’ (I call them that because he teases me about chickflicks) 🙂 And I watch movies of my choice on my laptop. We do hold hands – but no popcorn in bed!
And btw — because of you, being laid up with a bad back this weekend was much more pleasurable. I devoured Queen’s Gambit. Thank you! 🙂

Your beautiful photos exult “a sunny day is here again!”
Anyone who can enjoy his/her own company is blessed. This is a challenge many are faced with right now. So much to consider here. Actually, being with others can also be a mirror for our dark side…although we usually project that aspect onto others. With others we can laugh and love more readily…great to get all we can out of either.

Balance, as they say, is the answer. Agree Valerie.
