Hermits are like people who like to live all by themselves. They don't like to be around other people very much, and they enjoy spending most of their time alone.
Imagine you have a very special toy that you don't want to share with anyone else. You would rather play with it by yourself in your own room, right? That's what a hermit likes to do with their life - they like to have their own private space and time to do what they want without having to worry about other people.
Sometimes hermits live alone in isolated places like caves, deserts or forests. They may grow their own food, collect water from a nearby stream, and build their own shelters to live in.
Now, being a hermit is not just about living alone. It can also involve giving up some of the things that we usually depend on such as modern technology or certain comforts that we have at home. Hermits want to live a simple life, without too many distractions or things that they think might get in the way of their peace and happiness.
It's important to remember that being a hermit is not for everyone, and it's perfectly okay to enjoy spending time with other people and living in a community. But for those who do feel called to live as a hermit, it can be a fulfilling way of life.
