Personally, I love solitude. Solitude to me does not signify loneliness or emptiness. It is a state of mind devoid of clutter that helps rediscover yourself. Living amidst the hustle bustle of city life only makes us seek moments of solitude more often. It doesn’t require taking a vacation far off. Solitude can be achieved anywhere, as long as you cut off the virtual connections on your phone for a moment!
This picture is my personal favorite from my visit to South Dakota. It was captured at Castle Trail in Badlands National Park. It depicts the pleasure of enjoying solitude.

You echoed the feeling and expression in the picture. Your thoughts about solitude resonates with me fully and there is clear distinction between solitude and loneliness. Agree fully:)

And yes, solitude provides us the time to gather our thoughts and introspect.
