Spending time alone (V2)

Aristotle, one of the most relevants philosophers of all time, stated, "man is by nature a social being". Does it mean that every person must avoid spending time alone at all costs? Not necessarily. I personally believe that spending time on oneself is definitely better than spending time on a social context.

In the first place, being alone gives people the opportunity for introspection. When someone spends time on their own, they can acquire a considerable amount of knowledge by reading. They can practice skills they have long wanted to master. They can even reflect upon their own life and improve it. Thus, spending time alone is indispensable for personal improvement.

Furthermore, solitude makes people stronger. When certain people are alone, they do not depend on anyone to survive. That self-sufficiency will eventually result in increased emotional intelligence, as they do not need another individual to support them. These people who have mastered the remarkable art of loneliness are those who will not get hurt by anyone.

Additionally, some people may find going out tiresome. Personally, I believe that hanging out with friends is a stressful activity. Walking, taking busses or even driving, money permitting, is notoriously difficult in Bogotá. Traffic jams abound here, therefore, being at home helps people feel more relaxed than having to go through all these ordeals.

To conclude, I strongly believe that spending time alone is far more beneficial than spending time with friends. Being alone enables people to grow emotionally and intellectually. Some individuals may even feel more relaxed by staying at home.

'in a social context' could be 'with others' or 'with other people'

In the first place, being alone gives people the opportunity for introspection.

'Most of all' or 'principally are alternatives to 'In the first place'

When ~~certain people~~individuals are alone, they do not depend on anyone to survive.

Traffic jams a~~bound~~re abundant here, therefore, being at home helps people feel more relaxed than having to go through all th~~ese~~at ordeals.

I would go for 'so' over 'therefore' for a better flow.

Great topic and an interesting read. I've heard the traffic in Bogota can be quite intense.
