Lately I have been thinking about why life has been quiet. The sudden quiet made me uncomfortable, as it was not planned but environmental circumstances forced them onto me. Alone with just my thoughts I started to feel lonely, I started to feel stuck and I started to think why now? Then I found some of these photos and I remembered where I was (a solo trip) and what I felt during those times. I loved the quiet. I want to find the joy in solitude again. I want to learn to not run from the quiet. Over the next couple of posts I will be sharing how I am embracing the quiet again, what I am learning, the benefits and why the quiet scared me at first.
