Question

Research on religious hermits and pioneers suggest that voluntary isolation:

a. is not likely to lead to happiness
b. is related to happiness
c. is extremely common
d. always leads to happiness

Answer 1

I would say that voluntary isolation always leads to happiness because of for example the case of Crusoe of Lonesome Lake in northern British Columbia Canada who went to live in the wilderness by himself and ended up even building a plane and learned how to fly it all by himself.
