Adios, amigo. Vaya con Dios. We'll miss you whenever you decide to pull out be it today or whenever. Solitude doesn't have to mean alone - take your dog with you, keep your loved ones handy.
I’m not going anywhere. It’s just a word that I have never heard before and I like the definition. It can be workable for sure. Sorry for not being more specific.
Thanks, brother. I know the feeling, as it happened to me on certain blog that I was involved with, as you know, many years ago.
I'm sitting on the sidelines, waiting until the day when I can no longer be fired for saying something unacceptable to the current local regime. (It's coming soon and they won't appreciate the light being shone on them.)
I'm a big fan of solitude. Never more relaxed than riding trails on my mountain bike or hiking in the woods. Never really needed to fade, I've always been this way.
At 70 I know exactly how what it means. It has to do with the natural order of knowing and feeling the welcoming of limited heartbeats. And it’s ok that way. It is a way of accepting Death. You have no choice. So enjoy the life show.
I can do that, my word is, Solivagant, soh-LIH-va-ghent] (adjective): To wander alone. Solivagant comes from the Latin words “solus” meaning alone, and “vagans” meaning “wander.” My other word and state: canophilia, (kəˈnɒfɪlɪst ) noun. a person who loves dogs. So when I wander and enjoy my solitude, my dog is with me.
Bridges? I dunna burn them, I blow the dadgum things up. Even so, somehow managed to keep a good woman for 42-years. And 80-years is little more than a wakeup away.
Been there for a decade and a half, maybe longer. Never knew there was a name for it. Recently, one of my sisters told me I NEED, according to her, to be out meeting and interacting with people. I told I was perfectly happy not having other peoples drama disturbing my zen. She then accused me of being crazy, as in insane to which I replied "I'm the sanest person I know". That REALLY sent her into a tizzy to which I replied "now you know why I avoid people" which spun her up even more.
Most just don't get it, especially the ones that tell you how "you SHOULD BE leading your life". Sometimes, I'd really like to say FUCK OFF, but I try, even though it's very difficult at times, to be polite.
Some times solitude works best when you take your dog with you.

I hope that's only for the expansion of our knowledge base and not foreshadowing... 🤞🤞🍺🍻

We know, because some of us would track you down and drag you back into the fray.

The BC from the mean dog empire? That's a long time ago. Fun times!

Never heard that word. Doesn’t apply to me. I don’t fade away I cut and run. When I’m done, I’m done. Last 9 years have been fantastic.

ReplyDeleteSocial distancing my whole life but I made it official in 2005.
ReplyDeleteWow, that pretty much describes me nowadays.

ReplyDeleteIf you are gradually withdrawing wouldn’t that be more akin to a verb? Not a grammar nazi, just went to catholic school.
