yup, burnt1ce's argument is both puzzling and overstated, even as i appreciate their zeal for sports.
loneliness has many antidotes, not just having/making friends. just interacting with other people can stem loneliness.
i both volunteer and play sports (basketball) and while some benefits overlap, i do each for principally different benefits.
basketball provides both regular exercise (that i like and do willingly) and an outlet to be competitive (and even aggressive).
volunteering provides an opportunity to learn something new and give to others.
that both reduce loneliness is icing on the cake.
- burnt1ce 7y agoWhich argument do you think is most puzzling and overstated? I'm just trying to understand this from your point of view.
- macintux 7y agoYour first line is completely unwarranted. Sports was better for you, at least for the sports you chose and the volunteering opportunities you chose. That’s fine. To apply your anecdata to the rest of the world and shout the following is what’s troubling. > No way! I totally vehemently disagree.
