It’s OK To Be Alone
"The mere presence of other people, [Koch] notes, obliges us to coordinate our experience with theirs, thereby diminishing the scope of our actions. As one’s experience of viewing a painting in a museum changes when another

viewing, but also of ourselves as viewers." - Solitude: An Exploration of Benefits of Being Alone
