Different views on economic policy or the US’s place in global politics? I can work with those. But as soon as someone starts wanting to make laws on how I or my friends interact with our doctors about medical care or try to ban our gender expression? That’s a hard no, thank you.

There is the assumption in your statement that social involvement is what everyone wants. I do not. It is not fear or distrust, it is that I don’t like the disorder and distraction that people bring to the solitude and peace I enjoy.

I am not aggressive about it, I am well received by my neighbors and at the grocery store, I get along well with others in public because I wish to avoid confrontation, but I much prefer being home with my wife and dog. How is that edgy?

@@Ribberflavenous Monastic life? What monastic life? ????
Monks live in communities called monasteries. They are isolated from society, yes, but they aren’t isolated from people in general. They live with like minded people who live a similar lifestyle and support each other.
This is the case in Orthodox, Catholic, Buddhist and Hindu monasteries.

Most people don’t work in isolation. So instead of prioritizing individual productivity, more organizations should prioritize productivity at the system level.

Be humble today. Be teachable. The world is often bigger than your view of the world. There’s always room for a fresh idea or a next step. But first you must accept the fact that things may never go back to how they used to be, and that this ending is really a new beginning…

@@ghfdghjh_53521 I think it really depends on every person and the relationship they have each other !
I always love being alone because I love peace and serenity and quietness. Sometimes I don’t like that someone disturb my quiet and peace moment . . .
But hang out doesn’t matter me also. It just depends on who and what is the vibe.
And also I don’t have attachment or aversions for someone so I don’t pay too much attention to those things.

I disagree. Making friends is simple, do something in your life and keep doing it!!! Don’t just go hiking with a new group one time or go to some kind of event one time and never show up again. If you like the event. Keep doing it, you will make friends. Just like in school, you have to go to classes every day, you will slowly have a group of friends.
