Aloneness and silence are two aspects of one experience, two sides of the same coin.

Aloneness is not loneliness. Loneliness is a negative state of mind where one feels a lack, a desire for the other. It is a sort of poverty, an emptiness that needs to be filled by someone else’s presence. Aloneness, on the other hand, is the very richness of b…[Read more]
