Wendell Berry: The Communion Of All Creatures


We enter solitude, in which also we lose loneliness. 
True solitude is found in the wild places, where one is 
without human obligation. One’s inner voices become audible. 
One feels the attraction of one’s most intimate sources. 
In consequence, one responds more clearly to other lives. 
The more coherent one becomes within oneself 
as a creature, the more fully one enters into 
the communion of all creatures.
 
- Wendell Berry
