Solitude

For we enjoy this
the greatest of pleasures
all the more
when we are absent from one another

Seneca is talking about solitude here. Solitude is about when we reflect; cherish ; that which happens in the absence of others

why?
because, in presence of friends, we get happy first, but then, we engage in fripperies, chit-chats, and small talk!

spend time in solitude
Contemplate, reflect and cherish
