On preparing for precious moments.

I’m a loner. In that I spend lots of time alone. Of course, it’s different when I’m with my Italian true love. Either in Sardinia. Or here in Minnesota. And when we’re not together in the flesh, we still make daily contact. On Skype. Therefore, in that sense, I’m not all that much alone. We’re really together in spirit virtually all the time. But I’m physically alone more than I’m physically with someone. Anyone. Doesn’t bother me. Really, I like the balance. The solitude. Gives me time to turn inward. To think. To write. To read. To pursue one of my favorite pastimes –  savoring solitude. In preparation for precious moments of togetherness.  With my true love. –Jim Broede
