The life is a labyrinth?...

"The Labyrinth of solitude" is one of many books that we read in High School to know more about the Anglo's culture. The purpose of reading this book in this class was to understand the Mexican-human-nature/identity, and compare it with the Anglo's. 

As my teacher said, there is a great difference between solitude and loneliness. In the world there are too may people that are in solitude but only few in loneliness, and the following is the way Octavio Paz explain the solitude:

"Solitude is the profoundest fact of the human condition. Man is the only being who knows he is alone, and the only one who seeks out another. His nature-if that word can be used in reference to man, who has ‘invented’ himself by saying ‘no’ to nature- consists in his longing to realize himself in another. Man is nostalgia and a search for communion. Therefore, when he is aware of himself he is aware of his lack of another, that is, of his solitude."- Paz,Octavio. 'The Labyrinth of Solitude'. New York: Grove Press, 1961. p195
