To Conclude Loneliness

I started out the project with the hopes of finding out more about the human nature and what differs in each person. Eventually, this progressed to research on Loneliness and how this psychological and social problem affects the mind. As we went through our work we found this book called Loneliness – Human Nature and the Need for Social Connection which was a significant source in our research. Loneliness is broad topic that can be classified into a couple of different categories that people can fall under. Using this and various other resources, including Roger Ebert’s blog, we learned that loneliness has a lot of contributing factors. Genes, environment, and even the chemical makeup of a person could affect a person’s social outlook. But, to conclude our efforts, we found out that humans couldn't live in solitude. We crave human interaction for companionship and without it, we would be incomplete. As social creatures it is nearly impossible for us to live alone. It's true that one might like solitude once in a while but eventually, we'll always come back for interaction.
