Sanity


a discussion with a friend about Extroversion and Introversion 

led to this: you're spending the Rest of your life on an island.

if you had the choice between living in Solitude

or being Chained to one person of your Choosing 

at the ankle

would you Hesitate? 

the island is Magical; you have everything and anything 

you need except for Interaction with organisms 

(no Dogs). 

would you Hesitate? 

his answer was Yes. 

he would consider the Solitude, though ultimately 

Choose to be Chained to someone. 

my answer was No.

Why? I thought about it;

arriving to the conclusion that  

Really

what is Life without People? 

Interaction?

Communication?

where is our Humanity?

it's what We live for. 

ultimately, he'd Choose to be Chained to someone.

being with others

is our Sanity.
