This morning in church, our pastor cited research that indicates we are just as likely to contract heart disease from social isolation as we are from smoking. Our well-being in every sense is dependent on our connectedness to others.
So true really, I enjoy being alone at times but thrive when I'm chatting or laughing or interacting with other people, it's why I chose nursing as a career initially.

Stay connected!
Since I work in a pub/ restaurant I think I interact socially often enough.. I am enjoying a day of social isolation!!

I never thought of that but it makes sense. Loners can be very strange. We all need the interaction with others. That's what life is all about.
Interesting. I had no idea.
I never thought of that...lovvvely greetings
I think your pastor may be on to something.
Cool stuff.
I completely agree...and just this afternoon sent an email to some friends I don't see nearly often enough so that we can fix that.
