Sometimes you
hunger for an alone time, a time to float, collect yourself, silence internal
thinking, internal noise of your everyday strivings. At other times, you wish
for like-minded souls with whom you can relate and identify, those who create
feelings of togetherness and community. When you have too much solitude, you yearn
for community. When too much community exists, you thirst for some time alone.
For your soul’s best stability, try to create a contentment by focusing on a
deliberate balance. You choose the adjustments for helpful balance, but you are
not alone.
Prayer: Lord, through every day given, help me
harmonize solitude and community.
