Thoreau's famous for spending a lot of time alone and writing about it. " I am no more lonely than a single mullein or dandelion in a pasture, or a bean leaf, or sorrel, or a horse-fly, or a bumblebee. I am no more lonely than the Mill Brook, or a weathercock, or the north star, or the south wind, or an April shower, or a January thaw, or the first spider in a new house." Finding a living person or two that shares an interest or two can be a rare and good thing. Until then, there are always artists who've shared our problems. ;-)
