“I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.”
– Henry David Thoreau

The photo makes me want to lay down and hide myself in the tall grass *S*….and the quote … at first I thought it was R. Frost….it was lovely nod nods.

Thanks, Katie! 😀 I’m catching a little solitude myself tonight while the more adventurous are out lighting firecrackers.

As I spend today alone, I can’t agree more.

Can I tell you how much I LOVE your choice? I toyed with using self companionship too but for the life of me couldn’t fathom how to show it with a photo. Your choice of quote and image are spot on! Bravo! !
