Unwinding.

After months of worry, I needed to spend some time alone, so I chose a suitable couple of days to stay in the country. No electricity, but loads of tiny solar lamps, wood fire and peace.
Being an open-minded person, I thought it would be a good idea to read  the Q....., so I have begun. 
So far it has underwhelmed me, but I prefer to have an informed opinion, albeit limited, than no knowledge of it at all.
Before I left home, I was inundated with warnings, such as mind where you walk, do not break your feet, are you actually going to sleep there, all alone? 
I have tried to feel fear, to no avail.
Anyway, the truth is that I could stay here for a long time without feeling lonely, bored or scared, as long as I avoid the mirror.
