Looking out of the airplane window I find myself lost in the beauty as, for a moment, I find peace in my loneliness.

There is a quiet sadness within me that has crept its way to the surface as I look out at the landscape beneath me, acre after acre of beautiful nature, beautiful rocks, streams, hills, beautiful colors and shapes.

I want to be down there. I want to walk through the forests and wander over the mountains.

I want to be alone in the silence in solitude without the hurt and sadness that has enveloped me today.

I want to experience the beauty in the loneliness.
