     To be alone is to be without social support.

     Social support provides supportive role models of how
and  with what self-regard to be and act  with  integrity.
Such role models by being and acting demonstrate  personal
and  social  integrity in being and  acting.    They  also
support  young people in their efforts to be and act  with
personal integrity.

     Conformity  is  not the essence of being  and  acting
with social integrity.

     Integrative  role  models  do not  provide  conformal
patterns   which   are  to  be  copied   without   change.
Integration role models show the way to bring about change
with personal and social integrity.   Conformity  inhibits
change.

     Change may be either integrative or disintegrative in
nature.  Wise role models of how and with what self-regard
to be and act as agents of integrative change.  To worship
change  for  the sake of change  leads  to  disintegrative
violence  as  a way of promoting change for  the  sake  of
change.   The distinction must be made between integrative
and  disintegrative change.   Integrative role models make
this  distinction  by being and acting with  personal  and
communal  integrity to promote integrative  change.    The
distinctions they make are not just academic distinctions,
and  they  become distinguished as wise leaders  for  that
reason.

     The person who is alone is without social support and
does not seek personal and social integrity,  or is unable
to   find  social  support  which  is  essential  to   the
development of personal and social integrity.  Some people
chose  to be alone.   Other people are alone because their
society  has rejected them for being what they essentially
are.    The responsibility for being alone may be anywhere
from primarily personal to primarily social.   This is why
it  is important that people seek to provide  role  models
which  are  characterized  by  both  personal  and  social
integrity.  Both are essential.   Neither can exist in the
absence of the other.
