Analyzing a Poem and our Culture

[StrgMarvelousWmn]

I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.

This is the part that interests me. I wonder how a WAS copes with that part? It always strikes me that those that leave for reasons of infidelity and MLC might have a HUGE problem with liking the company they keep in the empty moments.....hence the need to fill their time with others or distractions and thereby avoid empty moments........or just keeping their own company....they feed of others/ things.

Saffie--

I wonder the same thing. Rather than have to be alone with the very real reality of their decisions, they pursue the next rush, the next thrill, the next partner in order to ensure they never have to be alone with their thoughts. Kind of sad to think they can never get real with themselves, much less someone else.

Living God's blessings with grace and dignity~
