Why has it been a few days since I’ve written? Maybe because my life hasn’t been filled with much silence, solitude or simplicity and after all, that’s what this blog is supposed to be about. Well, it’s partly about that, but one way I seem to understand the 3Ss is when I don’t have them. Zing, the contrast brings clarity.
Clarity No. One. As much as I love solitude, I love going places with friends. Yesterday five of us had a ball just over the border in New Hampshire, first enjoying lunch at the Pickity Place in Mason, and then wandering about the Cathedral of the Pines in Rindge . If this were a travel blog, I’d tell you about them, but since it isn’t, I suggest you check out them out on line, and if you ever in the area, by all means make a visit.
Clarity No. Two. Visiting places with friends is a different experience than visiting alone. What fun we had discussing the herbs and edibles leaves and flowers that were part of our gourmet lunch:
Clarity No. Three. I will return to these places alone, for a silent and solitary visit. On a beautiful day I could spend hours at the Cathedral of the Pines, a “cathedral without walls” that welcomes people of all faiths and honors the service of American men and women, both military and civilian.
Today I’m thinking that I gotta have companionship in order to enjoy solitude, and of course, vice-versa.
