I'm alone right now. Alone in my room. Alone in my mind. Alone with my excitements and troubles. There is energy in the cosmos calling me a lone grain of wheat with no relatives. The energy tells me that though I am a lone grain, I am rooted with all grains. The energy also reminds me that I am connected to the water that hydrates me, the soil that roots me, and the sun that warms my being.
I find such peace with solitude.
I find such pleasure and contentment being social.
In a crowd of 100 people I could be alone. And sitting alone with no one is sight, I could have all the company I want.
Question: am I always alone, or never alone?
