Not an empty mind. Solitude is the opportunity to rid ourselves of noise. Noise from the television. Noise from the world. And to actually learn to think about life, the world, about science, a hobby, about writing or whatever else can enrich your life. For me I do a good deal of praying for people. Solitude isn't a silent and empty mind. The young people these day, my nieces and nephews and most of the kids I come in contact with don't spend any time thinking. It's going to leave the next generation to only react to the present moment.
