the value of solitude...

“Solitude is very different from a 'time-out' from our busy lives. 
Solitude is the very ground from which community grows. 
Whenever we pray alone, study, read, write, or simply 
spend quiet time away from the places where we interact 
with each other directly, we are potentially opened 
for a deeper intimacy with each other.” 
~Henri Nouwen

the importance of solitude...

"Without solitude it is virtually impossible to live a spiritual life. 
Solitude begins with a time and a place for God and God only."
~ Henri Nouwen
