A Line About Summer

I like Summer when I can sit under a tree and enjoy the light and when I find that I have enjoyed the Summer months I find myself agreeing with Shakespeare- but to be honest that doesn’t happen a lot.

I mean me not liking Summer- I like Shakespeare- and I like these paintings too.

“Writing is a solitary job — that is, no one can help you with it, but there’s nothing lonely about it. I have always been too busy, too immersed in what I was doing, either mad at it or laughing at it to have time to wonder whether I was lonely or not lonely. It’s simply solitary. I think there is a difference between loneliness and solitude.”
― William Faulkner at the University of Virginia
