  18 Your place--somewhere to be alone
"I'm singing in the shower, just singing in the shower", I do sing when I am in the shower, does anyone out there do the same?
There're something about the sound, the acoustics1, the steam perhaps.... the mixed things sound better in the shower, but that isn't exactly why I sing when I take a shower, it's because I feel happy.
Since I'm a public person, and I have a family too, there're few places where I feel private, even at my own home. The kids come in and out my room all the time, but after the day is done, the best place to rinse2 the worries or the world off my body and mind, well, there is no doubt is the shower.
I wish I can take a bath and just soak3, but, ohm,well, I'm a bit long and I don't fit in my bathtub4. so it just stresses me out.
Everybody needs a place that is just for that person, for me it's the shower, for other people, it's different. It could be
Your bedroom,
A local park,
A scheduled spot deep in the forest.
But we all need a place where we can be alone. To give us time to think, and to escape from the rest of the world.
Talk about it:
1)Do you have a place where you can be alone?
2)Do you have a place where you can meditate5?
3)Do you have a place where the worries of the world get washed away?
4) Is this place you can go everyday?
5)How do you feel when you are alone?
6)Do you spend a lot of time by yourself?
7)What do you do when you are alone?
8)How do you think being alone affects your mental health and happiness?
9)Do you think being alone can be good for you?
