		<description>Nate, I think you&#039;re a fine writer. Good luck with your blogging. I think many of us envy the life of the hermit, yet we understand that the life of committed solitude is not as easy or attractive as in our romantic imaginings. Your words strike a familiar chord in me...and in many, I&#039;ll bet.</description>

		<description>Pebbles: If you can put into words, how you feel, I would be interested in hearing what you would say!

Jude: Thanks for the comment. I still do not know about blogging? It continues to be a test, and I&#039;d rather write like this, rather then fill up dozens of composition notebooks. 

I also agree with you. The only way to understand something, is to experience the stuggle of it!</description>

		<description>I think the peacefulness in solitude is something we all strive for, even if it&#039;s only for a few minutes (take yoga or tai chi).  I think it&#039;s something we all need.  However, I also think that very few of us could actually live a life  where human interaction seldom occurs.  Everyone achieves a balance somewhere along that continuum.  

Nice post Nate.</description>

		<description>Yah, I can agree with what you&#039;re saying Vernon. I need human interaction even if they are all behaving like programmed robots, or aliens. I think it may be the other way around, or vice versa.

I don&#039;t mind human interaction. It is a need. What I could do without, is the sugary traps of this popular American culture. It?s the beast that is destroying everything in its wake.</description>

		<description>i think i would get tired of being a hermit.  i like to be alone sometimes.  i&#039;m not afraid of being alone.  i love, however, being with people.  i get wacky energy from being with people.  take that little personality test on the top left hand corner of my page &amp; see what your personality type is...  then visit www.keirsey.com &amp; take a look a your personality type...  it&#039;s all very interesting...  :)  z
