These poems reflect my exploration of solitude and meditation over the last few years.Embracing solitude has become an unexpected but essential component of my healthand wellbeing. Many people are afraid of solitude or they simply don't know how to be intheir own company. But I have found that there are endless benefits to deliberatelycarving out time to be purposely alone. Solitude has proven to be a way to get to knowmyself, reflect on my past, build stronger relationships, and live life on my own terms. Ihope that this chapbook will show you the growth that takes place in stillness and pavethe way for your own journey in aloneness.
