solitude – TYPiNG ouT oF THe BLue

Around the year 550, a young Irish monk named Gall left his homeland with Columbanus—who later became a saint—to bring faith to Europe. They preached across wild lands, clashed with kings, and lived with almost nothing.

When his mentor was exiled, Gall stayed behind near Lake Constance. He was sick, tired, and alone—but instead of returning home, he built a small cell beside a stream. No grand church, no crown, just prayer and silence.

People found him anyway. The sick, the poor, the confused—they came to this quiet man in the woods who listened more than he spoke. That little hermitage became a gathering place, and long after he died around 645, it grew into something vast: the Abbey of St. Gall, one of Europe’s great centers of learning.

He never ruled armies or built monuments. Yet his stillness shaped a city, his humility built a culture, and his silence spoke for centuries. Saint Gall never sought glory—but glory quietly found him.

Sometimes, silence has better company.

Some people choose not to mingle—not because they think they’re better, but because they’ve finally learned what peace costs.

They protect their energy like something sacred. They’ve seen how noise can blur the edges of a calm mind. So they stay where peace stays.

They crave depth, not crowd. A real talk over coffee means more to them than a hundred laughs in a noisy room. They don’t chase company—they wait for sincerity.

They’re focused on their calling. The quiet ones are often the ones building something unseen—songs, stories, meaning. Alone time isn’t emptiness; it’s the studio of the soul.

Some are healing. Space becomes their recovery room, silence their medicine. They don’t hide—they’re mending.

And some have simply outgrown the noise. The endless talk, the forced smiles, the trends—they’ve moved past it.

They respect boundaries. Theirs and others’. They don’t push to belong where their spirit doesn’t fit.

They’re not cold. Not distant. Just tuned to a different frequency—one that hums softly where the world shouts loud.
