Comfort, Solace

To take one's mind 
   off of his troubles
An endless variety of games...

For comfort, solace 
   help with the struggle
Find a quiet spot
   ~ Fervently call His Name

I am mostly a homebody by nature, so it has not been as stressful for me to stay home - but finding solace is sometimes a challenge!

Solace is never easy... Perhaps the word comes from solo = one, alone... Aha! Just looked up the etymology. I was wrong. The word comes from solari(Latin) to console. Thanks for the observation, Michelle. Warmest wishes, Gershon

Thanks, Tom. This advice I take myself, and it works for me every time. Cheers, Gershon
