I don't think that I would like to be all alone in the world. I have known people like that and it was incredibly hard for them ~ they were almost trapped in their own alone-ness.

However, I do enjoy my own company and some people find that hard to understand.

There is a lot one can do without others ~ reading, photography, family history research, etc, etc. But then, it's nice to share the results.
