“Solitude can be a homecoming to your own deepest
belonging. One of the lovely things
about us as individuals is the incommensurable in us. In each person there is a point of absolute
non-connection with everything else and with everyone. This is fascinating and frightening. It means that we cannot continue to seek
outside ourselves for the things we need within. The blessings for which we hunger are not to
be found in other places or people.
These gifts can only be given to you by your self. They are at home at the hearth of your soul.”
John O’Donohue
