The Most Common Conflict in Life Episode 94, LIFE LESSONS

Social Vs. Being Alone

If you want fame- Be social. If you want peace- Be alone. The choice is all yours.

Hi friends and welcome to Life Lessons.

Ram is an introverted person. He is one of those people who like to stay more time alone and do something that they like. He never thought what the reason behind it was. Right from his childhood, he is brought up to be obedient and disciplined. The same was the dominant behavior of him. He grew up to be an introvert somehow. He knows this and thus was waiting for a perfect occasion to get social.

After few days came a chance for him to get social. There was an event organized on the eve of Independence Day. There was intense preparation going on to make it a grand event of all time there.

Since he was an introvert, he had no good contact with people who were involved in this preparation. There was a person who was a good friend of Ram in the arranging section. Therefore, Ram went to him to know more details about the same.

His friend said that some cultural activities were going to be performed after the flag hoist ceremony. But we the people need not pay for anything, as everything was voluntarily performed. Ram believed in his words and got ready to join the alliance in the event.

Finally, the day has arrived, the event started on a positive note and everything went absolutely awesome. Ram was happy that he was getting social successfully.

A day later Ram got a message from his friend that he has to pay a share of Rs 5000 for the event. Ram was astonished by the message. He asked that he was said that there is nothing to be paid for the event, but his friend replied- since the organizer wanted everyone to share the money, Ram too had to pay his share now. Ram was disappointed and outraged at once. The reason was not the money he had to pay. The reason was that he was pulled into this just that the share of others would reduce. Ram could digest this fact and regret getting social.

Not only in the case of Ram, but there are also many instances in our life where we would have felt that we have done something wrong by getting (more) social. Out of this feeling, there comes an important question- is it good to stay social or to stay alone.- which forms an important conflict for us in life Let us understand the answer in detail in the coming lines.

Being Social

Being social is an inevitable part of life. Some believe this and some don’t. But this is true. I realized it after so many days of struggle. Lucky are those who can easily interact with people and defend themselves at times.  But not all people are the same. Some want to get social and but soon get outraged by one bad behavior or attitude. The real question is what is the reason for this? The first & foremost is the attitude of the person of not tolerating the filthy attitude of others. But the second one is definitely the filthy attitude of the person beside him (her).

Being Alone

Being alone is considered one of the toughest things in life. It is because as a social being, a human being cannot live alone. Man is dependent on others in one or the other way. On the other hand, it is extremely challenging to spend time and work alone without the company of anyone. But some people like living alone. They can spend time alone, do things alone and live alone. These people are quite unique and hard to find. What makes them special is their productivity. Being alone gives a lot of productive time. There are minimal distractions. This is the reason it is often suggested to be alone when we prepare for the examinations.

What should be the choice?

Many people have a question- what should be the choice? Should we are social or should be alone.

To be transparent there is no perfect answer to this. But ideally, the answer is the life should be a mixture of both. Ram is the best example we can directly peep into. He was a person who liked to stay alone. But he found longing and need to get social. Not only this, there come various needs for an individual to stay social. Thus one cannot ignore being social so easily. On the other hand, the people who always stay social get tired easily due to different personalities and attitudes. In these scenarios, they need quality time to spend alone. It is always suggested to spend some quality time alone to self-evaluate.

Many times there is always a conflict between being social and being alone. But no one wins in this conflict. Everyone’s life should be a blend of both of them. But the ratio is completely different for each person depending upon needs and choice. There can be a one-line answer for the query:

If you want fame- Be social. If you want peace- Be alone. The choice is all yours.

Bottom Line:

We are biologically programmed and socially conditioned. This is the reason for the conflict. It is our part to bridge this gap on our choice and needs. I feel that this is one of those aspects that makes us mature as a person.
