Opening a Door That Separates Two Worlds
It's impossible to experience solitude regularly for any extended length of time without personal passions and authentic longings surging to the surface of your awareness. Once you have embarked on the search for your own authentic style, followed the wisdom of your own heart and have seen the results begin to blossom in your life, you realize that solitude cracks open the door that separates two worlds: the life we lead today and the life we yearn for so deeply.
We can all find ways to regenerate once we realize how essential solitude is to our experience of inner harmony. Tille Olsen wrote in her story, "Tell Me a Riddle," of a woman who "would not exchange her solitude for anything, Never again be forced to move to the rhythm of others more than we would like, once we learn to respect and cherish our needs for solitude opportunities will arrive in which we can learn to nourish our imaginations and nurture our souls.
Begin slowly but resolutely. Take comfort in knowing that even stolen moments of solitude-quarter hour increments-eventually can add up to a lifetime of serenity. Be patient. Don't expect too much too soon, especially when rearranging your schedule means dealing with your family's expectations of what you're supposed to do when you're supposed to do it. Be patient.
And for those days-maybe even today-when you don't have a moment to yourself, take to heart the advice of photographer Minor White who discovered that "No matter how slow the film, Spirit always stands still long enough for the photographer It has chosen."
