Welcome to:
a hermit’s journal

It does not matter whether or not many read … so long as it reaches some of the few for whom it is intended.

This web site is primarily the sharing of resources and helps that I’ve found on my journey into solitude, the eremitic or hermit life. Periodically I also share some thoughts and observations, such as in the blog area.
Please understand, by no means do I claim I’m some kind expert on the topic of hermits. You can find plenty elsewhere. This web site is not the destination. It is only a guidepost or oasis for fellow seekers of solitude as they journey on their path into the desert. And if you are not one who hungers for the joys and benefits of solitude, but are a sincere seeker to understand a rather hidden but growing group of individuals, welcome!
I pray you find something of help or encouragement here.

basic layout of this site
Links to these pages are found in the row of tabs along the top of this web site, or in the “site map” over to the right. You may return to this page at anytime by clicking on the “Home” tab up above.
- About – This page provides some history of this web site as well as information about myself.
- Blog — Just a place were I post my thoughts and observations of society, the spiritual, and Creation.
- Life’s Path – A little something I wrote up that provides a metaphoric look at our lives. It includes links to web sites that discuss how to develop a personal rule of life.
- Resources — This is probably the core of this web site. From this page you can find various web based articles and resources that I’ve collected relating to a life of solitude. This would include stories of hermits, blogs by hermits, and practical resources of possible interest.
- What’s a Hermit – This page offers a rather basic definition of the “term” hermit. An all too often misused and misunderstood word.
