Losing contact with humanity--all friends, family, loved ones, society, i.e., being totally and completely alone.

In Los Angeles in a spacious, well-lit condo with a Japanese bathtub, energy efficient appliances, and considerate neighbors and a little garden/nature area.
What is your idea of earthly happiness?
Balancing personal life with a good career and extracurricular activities.
To what faults do you feel most indulgent?
It's not so much the fault that I consider as the creature that commits it. I indulge people and animals rather than faults themselves. (Note: unless they are so egregious. We're not talking genocide and pollution but rather forgetting to wash a dish.)

Modesty and good hygiene and sense of responsibility.

Honesty and diplomacy.

Myself.
