Alone Time

When things are going great with people and I'm frequently surrounded by loving friends, I find that I want alone time. It's not at all that I don't want to hang out with groups or that I'm tired of them, but I find that when I do get some hours of quiet time to myself, I can enjoy them with the comfort of knowing that I'm not alone because no one wants to be with me, but that I've been filled to the brim with satisfaction because of the time people have spent on me, and can therefore make my time alone something that is not sorrow or boredom and seclusion, but a time of renewal, peace and depth.

What I want to remember is that when I start hating my time alone and finding misery in it, it means that I have lost the balance in my life and need to spend more time with my friends, and in this case the lovely women that I live with and the others that love them as well.
