I like living in solitude most of the time. What about you?
I definitely enjoy short-term solitude! I like being able to work, rest and think without being disturbed!
I agree, its a great to be introspective and think about the days events.
I'm not sure I could deal with long-term solitude though! It often causes loneliness and reclusion. 
I think thats why its used as punishment in prisons in the form of solitary confinement. 
That's a great point! Long-term solitude can even lead to depression. I guess we all need human contact from time to time!
Yes we are social animals after all. Imagine living in solitude your entire life!
There are some who view solitude as a means of spiritual enlightenment, like monks, but that would be a tough life to live.
