So...what do you all do when you are alone? Who are you really?

Great Thread.
When I am alone I daydream listening to my inner voice. As a kid I used to love being alone still do.
I think about childish things like how can I paint a painting that will touch anothers soul.
How can I write a poem that will uplift another.
I leave the washing up piling in the sink often and let the dust settle on the furniture.
Sometimes though I read or see something that fires me up and want to partake.
I tell myself off sometimes too for daydreaming too much.
Sometimes i get low thinking about how this world is and how it could be.
I look at the stars and feel connected, I look inside and feel connected.
I sometimes feel that life itself is magic and full of wonder and want to share this feeling.
I go see my two friends White Horses who I feed apples and carrotts - We are always pleased to see each other.
I go to our garden and tend the plants and find joy in simple things like bird song and buds blossoming
I am a romantic dreaming a dream.

aritistpoet- you are very smiler to me, must be an artist thing
I personally love being alone.. to a point that I sometimes feel guilty over it.
I can have inspirational moments alone.. frustrating moments ..very content and peaceful moments .. as well as just apathetic moments.
I love nothing better than to spend my day wearing nothing but flannel pj's or "comfy" clothes.. sipping coffee and contemplating life ..and reading things on the net.

Wow, gabs!
Now that is some personal disclosure I would not have expected, nor anticipated! So, like we agree on Nancy Grace's lack of grace, we ALSO agree that alone time is precious....
and are probably at the same time sitting in jammy pants drinking coffee...
The only diff I can see from this post of yours from my point of view is that I don't feel guilty about it....
I know full well that you have no interest in my suggestions or input, but, nevertheless, I would encourage you to let go of the guilt! You are entitled to alone-time, and thought, and self-reflection. It is your God-given privilege, and your best course of action.
Hug to you, gabby.
