Today we discussed Kierkegaard and Nietzsche. Existentialism was the topic. The video is posted here. The quiz question was what do you think is the cause of loneliness?

  1. Humans are social creatures it takes a family to raise a child to insure a balanced life. Loneliness comes from a lack of attention that since of belonging that some people do not get for one reason or another, it is a need form companionship and acceptance and out right joy in one's life. If one goes with out these things it causes loneliness. Like a child left alone apposed to one with friends to play with and learn to socially interact to from healthy relationships with other people. A life of suffering by tyranny, full of disappointments and can cause fear and doubt that leads to loneliness and a felling of inferiority also leads to loneliness. Dealing with fake people and societies can make one lonely. One must find a balance in their own live to avoid loneliness that can be such a damaging negative force in the way of happiness.
