I am a hermit, a loner, but I don't live in a cabin in the woods. I have a job and I have bills to pay. I need to live in the modern world. I am a modern hermit. More and more, people are waking up to the benefits of isolation and solitude. Human interaction is a burden, and humanity is naturally corrupt and oppressive, which necessitates isolation. Greed, exploitation and hierarchy are all around us. Many are finding that it is beneficial to isolate themselves from humanity to ensure their own survival and sanity. A life alone can be very fulfilling and freeing.

There is a halo of virtue around family. Procreating and having a family is seen as wholesome and good. It certainly is a natural instinct to procreate and have a family. The desire to have children comes from our biology, our evolution. However, other natural instincts include aggression, murder and rape. We acknowledge the cruelty of "nature" when we see animals animals in the wilderness attack each other, but why do many not acknowledge that humans are animals too who naturally oppress one another for the sake of selfish gain? Nature is cruel and leads to suffering. To reduce suffering, we need to go against nature.
