In my solitude I feel safe; to express my emotions in any way, without being judged about anything I may do or say.
In my solitude I feel free; to do nothing at all, or anything I damn well please.
It’s liberating in my solitude; where I don’t have to worry about anyone telling me to cheer up or lose and attitude!
It’s sacred where I’m solo; I don’t have to listen to lies or have anyone fucking with my vibes.
I’ve awakened awhile my lonesome; I am more enriched spiritually and wholesome.
In the never lonesome solitary I have found myself. That is more of an abundance than any amount of wealth!

Can You Drive a Ford Fiesta Through a Desert?
I’m flying down the B1 highway from Windhoek to Keetmanshoop with a map and a boot full of camping gear. I’m excited for the first stop of my Namibian road trip: the Quiver Tree Forest. I spot the sign and turn onto the C17, off the tarmac and onto the gravel. I’ll be there soon; it’s only ten miles or so. I am unprepared for what comes next. The car slides and slips across the road. I am not fully in control anymore. I slow to a crawl. The car judders and shudders, the noise deafening, the vibrations rattling the teeth in my skull. It takes me around an hour to drive the ten miles. I arrive at the campsite relieved to be in one piece, even if it feels like all my bones have been shaken slightly out of place. I will later learn that this is what happens when the gravel road becomes “corrugated”, and that the roads authority goes round once a week to “grade” them. Seems I arrived about 6 days after the grader had last been round.
