But even worse, Griffin was unable to make himself visible again. He was too late.

To sum up, being invisible forces you to be a loner — like Griffin, and being alone is always the worst option.

Recent research on addiction, for example, has shown that addicts seek drugs due to isolation, or deep feelings of isolation, rather than because of chemical needs.

In a study done on rats, for example, the results showed that a rat in isolation when given two options for drinking always selected the water laced with heroin rather than regular water.

However, when rats are part of a community (adorably called ‘Rat Park’), frolicking around with other rats, mating, and engaging in the fullness of rat life — they completely ignore the heroin water and drink only the regular water.

In other words, they are high on life. Alone in a cage, they are invisible; they are doomed. But in Rat Park, they are highly visible (pun intended).

The thesis of this little piece is simple: make yourself visible, for you will be invisible when you are dead.

In H.G. Wells’ The Invisible Man, the protagonist Griffin, after a successful science experiment, turns himself invisible.

The novel shares the theme of invisibility with Plato’s tale of the Ring of Gyges in The Republic:

Plato argues that if anyone possessed the Ring of Gyges (a ring that would make one invisible), he or she would use that invisibility to gain personal advantage at any cost.
