The art of being one

February 14, 2013

By 2030 one in five of us will be living alone, according to recent government predictions. Couple this with the trend towards short-term contracts, part-time shifts, insecure freelancing and our work places are no longer the sure-footed sources of companionship and a sense belonging. We’re being increasingly cast adrift, being thrown back on ourselves for company, support and meaning. All of this may well suit the ascetic and solitary among us, the urban hermits, pet obsessives and gaming fanatics. But for those of us who thrive in the company of others, these are worrying trends indeed. How should we prepare for the pleasures and pains of our greater solitariness?

It’s funny how when we looked for an image for this post all the ones tagged alone were negative!

See what you can get away with today.
