A small creek is where I usually hang out when I feel like I want to be alone and had something to think of. What place do you go when you want to be just be yourself?

If I want to be alone I just stay at home, shut everything off, and maybe go back to bed. Either I do that or I go for a walk around the community before the day gets busy. I do not have a problem finding time and place to be alone and think.

Surely a good sleep is one way of getting away with anything. Thanks for the response.

in the church or any other sacred place coz it makes me more relax and I felt more secured that I'm in good hands - in God's hands. ^_^

Good morning dear friend Lotter , torfchablazed , well actually the place where i want to go when i am upset it usually changes , because i am not often going at the same place , because i have diferent location sincronyzed witgh the time , i meab if it is in the afternoon i am going at a parking lot of a Castel ( i live right now in a small village from Belgium , wich is a ancient village , with great arhitecture building , and great site sights to admire. So when i go at that castel , there is a huuge bridge that croses that half of the Center Ville , so at the afternoon there is pratically no one there , and then at night i have a great place , it is verry close to my place ( my house ) , and it is a small mountain ( a really small one not more then fourty metters ) and its covered by a small forest , and at the top of the small mountains it is one banquet and a statue , and the Belgium and Europeean Union Flagz , its pretty cool since i get to see also from there a pretty good part of the city at night. I wish you a great day dear friend Florin , Over and Out

Hi! I always dream of going to the seashore whenever I want to be with my own thoughts. But the sea is far from where we live. I sit on our balcony when I feel like really being along and I usually do it night time where I can gaze at the stars and feel the night breeze. It has a cooling effect. Or I stay in my room but there's not much to look at but the 4 walls.

That's an awesome plan ! Its good to have a moment for yourself alone, thinking of things or simply getting out with people or meditate and just be on your own at times.

torchablazed right here in this old comfy desk chair,used at four bucks. I go into my mind, my alone place. I pull my pretend anti stressbubble around me and I am alone even if my roomie is lying in her bed just a few feet away. I am a Scorpio and we scorpios can isolate ourselves in plain view. we do not let anyone know all of us, we keep some back as its our nature.we are often loners as I am.When we were in our apartment, I always retreated to my bedroom for alone times. My son knows me well so he never bothered me unless of course some emergency would come up/ As a child I had my place in a thicket of windbreak trees on our farm when I wanted to be alone.there I could be myself.My mom understood me and called it my thinking place. My dad did not know what to think but he did not mind. I was alone a lot as a child as I was the first born and my only sibling was nine years younger.

Well that creek must be really memorable to you! Well in my case I prefer going to my garden when I want some solitude. Actually this discussion brings into my mind one of my favorite hymn which is very applicable to my life.The lyrics of this song would fully answer you post. Now here I wanna share the lyrics: [i]I Come To The Garden Alone I come to the garden alone While the dew is still on the roses And the voice I hear falling on my ear The Son of God discloses. And He walks with me, and He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tarry there, None other has ever known. He speaks, and the sound of His voice, Is so sweet the birds hush their singing, And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing. I’d stay in the garden with Him Though the night around me be falling, But He bids me go; through the voice of woe His voice to me is calling. [/i]

I would love to go to the beach, if only I can do this everyday...I will never mind being alone as I am. But in my part of the world, going alone in the beach might not be so safe most especially for a lady like me. Some might think I am shopping for a lover there..ewwww..or some might think I'm nuts. The nearest bay area from me is about 45 minutes away , so that wouldn't be advisable to do everyday. So...it will all boil down to my Nemo..my laptop.I spend most of my time in front of my laptop doing myLot and interacting at facebook. Not bad at all , huh? (^_^)

I rather go to the mountains, but this is a thing that i cannot do myself alone. I go to a park of chestnut, wich is almost always peacefull, and there i can stay and think of the things in my life, and listen to birds singing, this relaxes me.

I can come home since I live alone. Or I can take a ten minute walk to the river and there is a beautiful spot. Sometimes there are a few people there but I have no problem with that. Thy are also enjoying the beauty and the quietness of that favorite spot of mine.

I usually go to a church. Many people are not comfortable inside a church (especially, an empty church) but, for me, it relaxes me. Even if I just sit there and do nothing, my worries are eased away.

I was always going on the river, but now when we moved I don't have anymore place to go :(

Not so fortunate to stay near the creeks... But surely I simply start walking down the street all alone; the cars, the buses and the traffic are obviously unknown to me. So, I can stay with me during that time.

When I want to be alone, I can easily just go into my bedroom and be by myself. It's not really difficult for me to find a place where I can easily be alone. I don't have a difficult time being alone, when I want to.
