Is society healthy, that an individual should return to it? Has not society itself helped to make the individual unhealthy? Of course, the unhealthy must be made healthy, that goes without saying; but why should the individual adjust himself to an unhealthy society? If he is healthy, he will not be a part of it. Without first questioning the health of society, what is the good of helping misfits to conform to society? — Jiddu Krishnamurti #IKITAO

the question then becomes; should one exit society to become healthy? or accept societies level of unhealthiness and try to raise it from within? i personally value intentional periods of self imposed isolation for this very reason, but struggle with the balance of not becoming too separate from the rest of the world.
