Wouldn\u2019t it be nice to have the world all to yourself?<\/em><\/p>\n

Ah yes. Escape from the heaviness of civilization with its conflicting and never-ending demands.\u00a0 Escape from\u00a0the gloom and doom of too much reality with not enough power to change it.<\/p>\n

Solitude, this is what is needed.<\/p>\n

Perhaps, in a cabin in the woods? No other humans to bother you. Nothing but nature, and all things basic and wild.<\/p>\n

This is what is needed in these times of angst and apocalypse. This is what is necessary when there is nothing but bone-wearying\u00a0doomsday and mania threatening\u00a0to strangle your soul at every frenetic turn.<\/p>\n

The alignment of the heavens\u00a0is coming, and the paradigm change\u00a0has been written in the universe.<\/p>\n

Time to get away from it all, yes?<\/p>\n
