How to Be Alone

Let me give a shout out to Kira C., from whose Facebook status update I stole the link to this videopoem by poet Tanya Davis, called "How to Be Alone," (with filmmaker Andrea Dorfman).

I actually have the opposite problem--I know how to be alone but have difficulty arranging time away from children and work in which to do it. Alone time is my best time.Without it, I am cranky, I am miserable, I doubt the purpose of life. Let us all praise time spent alone.
