In my religion, it's a given that time is allowed for a person to be alone with himself/herself, and his/her thoughts. Solitary walking pilgrimages, a time of the day called sadhana, quiet corners, meditation places, all come to mind. Since it's part of the faith that religion is essentially between you and God, there are plenty of opportunities for this. There is so much to figure out in those times.
On a personal note, I've always loved that aspect, and although I can enjoy a social festival, in many ways, I can't wait until I get back alone.
I also think it's a need in a reflective faith.
What opportunities for this does your faith provide? Is it meeting your needs in this regard?
