“Sometimes, I feel the past and the future pressing so hard on either side that there’s no room for the present at all.”— Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited (via books-n-quotes)
Why We Need Time Alone
1. It allows us to hear, and really listen to, our heart.
2. It helps us to feel – instead of stuffing our emotions.
3. It helps us to decide who we really want to be.
4. It allows us to step back from the pressure to fit in.
5. It frees us from the need to please, or seek others’ approval.
6. It helps us to establish more appropriate boundaries.
7. It allows us to recharge our batteries.
