In Defence of Boredom and Finding Self, page-25

Replace boredom with solitude @Jugador and I reckon you are onto something.

Jung put great store in isolation, regarding it as “the highest and most decisive experience of all,” because it is only when we are alone with ourselves that we can discover our inner supports, and in this discovery, we come to know the “indestructible foundation” of our being.

Solitude is essential for living a full life because it provides a “source of power and creativity.” By taking up the challenge of enduring loneliness we prove to ourselves that we are strong and come face-to-face with the creative energies that live within.

One of the keys to coping with the experience of loneliness is to become selective about the company you keep. Some people will understand what you are about; others won’t.

Our spiritual world enlarges too, as we become aware of our unity with all of life, and in some real, though ineffable ways, we discover new paths of being, new ways of relating to reality.
