Public Solitude


I took our kids to a couple of parks this afternoon. As we headed off around the fishing lake, I happened to look up, across the water, and saw this…

It made me think of the craving for solitude, and the craving for connection to others, and how the two might not necessarily be mutually exclusive; also of the blurring of ‘public’ and ‘private’ space, and ‘private’ and ‘public’ activity. It’s an image I want to reflect on further, so I’m storing it here…
