Lost Mind

Brainpickings
Interesting article on loneliness, creativity, and Mental Health. As I read this article, I wonder if the three are intertwined? And is it a blessing or a curse? When not in a depressive episode, I view introspective thinking as a privilege which not everyone has the ability -or guts- to experience.

But it's a dangerous place to tread. The abscesses of one's mind can be dangerously revealing. The deeper you go, the harder it is to escape and come back to tangible living. Hence the term "lost in thought".

Don't get me wrong, sometimes it's better there, more authentic.  Just enter at your own risk.
