Retreat

Retreating from society is a way of hiding yourself, and to prepare yourself in the meantime to face whatever you need to face. Or to hide others away from the danger that you have, are, or contain. I believe that a person should be able to hide whenever they want. But they're just little felines if you ask me. Unless it's the latter, (the one where you are hiding something away so that it won't hurt other people) then you are a true feline. People might lack self confidence to confront society, since the all mighty and scary society is something that takes courage to face. I believe it's just simply human nature to want to keep the ugly part of ourselves hidden - so that you can seek out potential mates to hide the flaws that might be with you genetically. That's why we always see ugly people wearing baggy things. Unless they're of self confidence (where does it come from) then usually people will in some form or another hide themselves from society.
