But sitting quietly and doing nothing aren't the same thing. I'll take the first (I love the first) and leave the second. Sitting in a quiet room alone, you can read, you can think, you can make notes, you can write, you can blog. Doing nothing, you do nothing, and while even that may have its place from time to time, mostly it's like being trapped.When I was in my twenties, I spent a considerable amount of time each day sitting alone in a quiet room. What was I doing? I was just sitting.
Can't say I ever felt trapped.
