You can and should shut out pressures from the outside world right now. Too many people are demanding too many unreasonable things of you. So today, enjoy being by yourself for a while. Lower the volume on your life and some helpful introspection is bound to come your way. You could be feeling more introverted than usual, which is a sure sign you aren't getting as much out of being in a group as is typical. Your energy is being diluted instead of enlivened.
