"I enjoy my space..." 'James "Kimo" Rosen

"There are many ways to enjoy one's space, sometimes solitude is a wonderful thing, a meditation so to speak..."
Living in a small town  on a tiny little island in  the middle of the Pacific Ocean makes it hard going anywhere without bumping into people you just don't want to see. Riding a bike makes it worse since you are a sitting duck for all to see from their cars.

Most days, I like to go get a cup of tea or diet coke  at one of my favorite fast food  restaurants. I write, read my mail and stare at walls. I do this because it relaxes me, it is in sorts my way of meditation. There are many ways to enjoy one's space, sometimes solitude is a wonderful thing! 


I am sitting minding my own business, some acquaintance I barely know says hello, cool hello back, he then proceeds to stand by my table and talk for 30 minutes while I drank my  diet coke. I finally had to leave because one lonely person thought because I was sitting alone, I too was lonely, not.


President Obama when asked what he dislikes most about being President, it is living a bubble, he can't go anywhere without secret service all over him, he basically has no personal space.  I am not famous, however in a small town on a tiny island in the middle of nowhere many times I feel like the President although my only secret service is my dog named Obama.
