Alone: in solitude- or by yourself, even in a group?

I find that, if my heart and mind start writing, I have to make a mental note to “pause” and be present where I’m at.
Also, I enjoy time alone…no distractions. I wondered if other writers experienced that.

I tend to spend more time by myself than with other people. Some is by choice, others by circumstances.
I tend to be one who does not like to be the hurry up and do something type of person. I enjoy spending time with people, I just don’t “have” to.

I like that.

I also have noticed at times, that I have received so strongly that all else is pushed out of the way until I was done writing.
I had friends that didnt understand that kind of focus to write. It was usually only for a few minutes, but that was all it took at the time.

There are times when the words trapped inside form tears in my eyes, just waiting to get out, and if I wait too long to write, the words start slipping away.
I love to love people but love my alone time, as well. I’m hoping to go away for a weekend soon: alone, no kids, no eating, no talking, no electronics…just writing with God.
