Typicallythere are two kinds of people who choose to live alone on purpose. The firstgroup of people
isartists. They believe in the inspiration in solitude. One of my friends is awriter. He enjoys the time
when heis alone because he can stay up late to read and, above all, concentrate on hiswriting without
fear ofbeing interrupted by others. On his wall he posts a quotation from Thoreau:"I never found
thecompanion that was so companionable as solitude." The second groupconsists of people who
aredisappointed with their marriage or family life. A woman I know has been livingalone since her
husbandleft her five years ago. She is not waiting for his return but she is justdisappointed with life.
