"LET NATURE BE YOUR TEACHER"
William Wordsworth
1770 to 1850
Why such a long solo experience?
Your life journey is an evolutionary one; your solo internship puts you in touch with your primal anxieties - the terrors and fears which are hereditarily instinctive: The emotional relics of your primitive ancestors necessary for 'fight or flight' survival against an assortment of predators and tribal enemies. We carry these remnant feelings, which can be helpful in a crisis, but interfere with our serenity if not mastered.
Your solo experience will bring out those subconscious emotions from their hiding places: Imagination roils in darkness, 'is it a bear?' Am I safe here in his tiny cabin? Is it something supernatural? Am I ready to confront this fear with the wisdom of this moment, not the terror-habits of the past?
A wealth of knowledge and insight, gleamed from your on-line coursework and studies, has given you courage - once you are comfortable with your new self, you will discover a new discoveries, hope, and serenity.
To never forget the lessons you learned there!
