Solitude

 
Picture yourself as a woman
 
who feels a deep pull towards solitude
 
as a way to replenish herself.

“We must become so alone...
that we withdraw into our innermost self.
It is a way of bitter suffering.
But then our solitude is overcome,
we are no longer alone,
for we find that our innermost self is the spirit,
that it is God...
 
Hermann Hesse
