Six Word Story #210

Six Word Story

Six Word Story:

Solitude- every writer and readers paradise.

About The Six Word Story:

This is a response to two posts this week. The first one is the Moonwashed Weekly Prompt. This week’s prompt was “solitude” and I really wanted to respond because solitude is one of my favourite things. As an introvert, solitude is very much my best friend. Shoutout to Eugi for this awesome prompt!

The second prompt is Kevin’s. I saw this image on his latest NTT challenge post and loved it. I knew I wanted to use it somewhere but wasn’t sure where. And then I wrote this six word story and knew it would go perfectly with it. Shoutout to Kevin for the many awesome images he creates that are so fun to work with!

As I mentioned, I love solitude since I’m pretty introverted. And I think a lot of readers and writers feel that way. At least the ones I know. We tend to really cherish our alone time and appreciate the peace and quiet. As I get older, I find myself becoming more introverted. In fact, if I had enough money I’d buy a little island and live on it all on my own forever. As long as it had Wifi. of course…

What are your thoughts on solitude? Let me know in the comments section below. And do share your own six word story/stories in the comments below that goes with this theme. Or just share a totally random SWS because why not! Or simply stop by and say hi!

      Ah yes, solitude is much better than a bad marriage.

    I am an introvert as well. I love solitude in nature, a beautiful forest with wonderful aromas and the quiet (hopefully no bears) or sitting alone looking at a beutiful scenery, or skiing down a slope that is completely empty of people.

    I like solitude, but if I don’t keep busy I get a bit restless and have to go for a walk outside. I would not do well in prison, lol.

    As an introvert, I prefer solitude too. Solitude is good for especially readers and writers for reading, creating content, introspecting and processing thoughts.

    I have come to love solitude the past few years. During my career, I was constantly tied to a work cell phone that never stopped with calls from tenants, contractors, and management. Those phones were always in my hands and I had no peace.

    Since I quit my job in 2018, it took some time for me to adjust to the solitude of not having those cell phones anymore. But now that I have solitude, I won’t give it up.

    I love living on a Island, in my little house surrounded by trees, enjoying the peace and quiet I get these days. I wouldn’t trade it…

    I too like being alone
    There can be hours when I go without any company or taking to anyone.

    Yes, we age I feel it’s becoming more and more common.
    I was not like this, but now I’ve stopped making new friends or even if I try to make friends, I don’t try hard towards those friendship.

    I feel yes, I’m lonely and all, whom do I have to talk to when I’m bored and feeling sad.
    I did invested in many friendship, but those never worked, and that puts a hole somewhere.
    Age tells you that, you are okay on your own and screw them 😛

    I love me some solitude and would say my introversion has become more pronounced since retiring and living through the pandemic. That said, I do enjoy smaller gatherings with friends, or even bigger ones if they’re related to something I enjoy a lot. And I’d add I agree with Milena in the sense that choosing solitude is better than it being imposed.

      Oh absolutely, I think solitude is enjoyable when it’s a choice but not so much otherwise. I think the pandemic increased introversion for most of us. We got used to being on our own or at least socialising less. I definitely became more introverted after.

    Great post about Solitude my friend😂
    Okay, let me be honest and say “Why should I be all alone when they are people who are funny like me out there? Huh😂

    Okay, here is a joke, an old man who stays all alone becomes so bored he goes out to a strip club to find a woman to party with! Haha, isn’t he a bit old😂😂😂

    Now you see why getting old sucks😂. Anyways, great article and on a serious note, being alone is needed to regain your origins and think clearly about your life🙏
