My Fortress of Solitude
Dear Fortress, I write to you from the quietest corner of my heart, a space only you and I truly know.
Within your walls, the noise of the world fades, replaced by the gentle echo of my own thoughts. It’s a sound that resonates deep within, a profound melody that guides me back to myself.
They see an empty room, a lonely space, but I see a universe contained within these walls. Like the pages of a beloved book, my thoughts unfold, revealing stories and insights I never knew existed.
Here, in your stillness, I learn to observe my emotions without judgment, watching them rise and fall like the tides. There’s no need to rush, no need to hide, for in your presence, I am free to be myself.
You are my silent stream of strength, Fortress, a place where I can retreat from the chaos of the world and reconnect with my inner peace.
You are the place where I find the stillness that others can not. Like the feeling of being within the pages of a good book, you surround me with peace.
Thank you, Fortress, for being my constant refuge, my anchor in the storm. I leave your presence feeling renewed, my spirit strengthened by the quiet power I have found within your walls.

Alexis, I feel like most humans do not spend enough time in true solitude. Though we may be alone physically, it is a lot harder to disconnect from technology and truly be present all on our own. Sometimes, being alone even seems scary. I’m glad that you find comfort and peace in solitude and that it renews your spirit. Thank you for sharing!
