I don't find solitude to be depressing, I love being alone.
It's nice to have time to contemplate your own thoughts without distractions sometimes.
Exactly. It is often a time where you can get work done or just rest.
Yes, it's important to step away from one's phone or emails to meditate or listen to music. Our minds are so stimulated all the time!
This is so true. I am an introvert and people sometimes think being alone is lonely, but to me solitude is peaceful.
I can see that. I think people feel the need to keep tabs on everyone, so when you decide to be alone it might seem strange to them.
I guess if you are not aware of the reasons, some people may actual be lonely and reclusive from bad relationships.
Yeah I can see how being in a bad relationship could turn someone away from wanting to start again, better to take care of yourself in that case.
