For an artist, withdrawal is necessary.
Julia Cameron

You are the artist of your life
Every day, you are creating your world
Bringing your gifts to the picture of life
And to do that well means having to slip away once in a while
To see things from your own perspective
Mary Sarton said:
Loneliness is the poverty of self;
solitude is the richness of self.

and that's poetiquejustis
With the crowd dispersed, Jesus
climbed the mountain so he could be by himself and pray.
He stayed there
alone, late into the night.
Matthew 14:23
