We are all made to be social animals
We are all made to be social animals. The primary reason for this is that with the help of others we are able to survive and we are able to survive better.

In the book
[Tell here, in your own words, about a friendship or a community that carried you through a hard season — and what you would tell your younger self about how much the people around you would come to matter.] We are, after all, made to be social creatures; from the very beginning, human beings survived only by leaning on one another. So this chapter is about the outer rings of your life: friends, community, and society — and how to be a good citizen of all three. — Friends, Community & Society (Relationships/Community/Society)
