I ēnei rā, kua tino nui haere ngā huarahi whakawhitiwhiti kōrero mā te hangarau, ā, mō te tokomaha kua tata whakakapi ēnei i te whakawhitiwhiti kanohi ki te kanohi. I tētahi taha, ka taea e ngā tāngata nō ngā pito katoa o te ao te kōrero tahi i te wā kotahi. Engari, i tētahi atu taha, he āhua noa iho o te noho tahi ka hangaia e ēnei taputapu, ehara i te tino noho tahi ā-tinana.
Ka taea e tētahi tangata te noho mokemoke i tōna kāinga, te mahi, te whai mātauranga hoki, engari kāore e tino puta ki waho, kāore hoki e hui kanohi ki te kanohi me ētahi atu. Ahakoa pēnei tana noho, ehara i te mea ka rongo tonu ia i te mokemoke.
I Hapani, kei reira tētahi rōpū e mōhiotia ana ko hikikomori. Ko ēnei tāngata ka whiriwhiri kia noho wehe i te hapori mō te wā roa, ā, he iti rawa tō rātou whai wāhi ki ngā mahi pāpori. Waihoki, ka taea hoki te kōrero mō te noho tapu (monastic life), arā, te noho wehe i te ao nā runga i ngā whakapono wairua, ā, he kōwhiringa nā te tangata ake.
Mēnā ka tirohia te āhuatanga i te taha kē, ka kitea hoki ētahi tāngata e āhua pai ana te noho i te tirohanga a te hapori. Ka haere rātou ki te mahi, ka whai mātauranga, ka noho tahi me ngā hoa me te whānau. Heoi anō, ahakoa kāore rātou e noho mokemoke ā-tinana, ka rongo tonu rātou i te mokemoke i roto i a rātou anō.
Ahakoa kei roto te tangata i tētahi hononga aroha, tērā pea ka whakaaro tonu ia kāore ia e tino uru ana ki tōna taiao, kāore rānei ia i te taha o te tangata e tika ana mōna. I kōrero hoki te kaituhi rongonui a Anton Pavlovich Chekhov:
"Ki te mataku koe ki te mokemoke, kaua e mārena."
I ēnei āhuatanga e rua, ka kitea he wāhanga o te oranga e makona ai te tangata, ā, he wāhanga anō e kore ai e makona. Hei tauira, tērā pea ka tino rata te tangata ki tana mahi, engari kāore ia e pai ki tōna kāinga noho, ki tōna hononga aroha rānei. Ko ngā mea e hua ai te makona, te pōuri rānei, ka rerekē i ia tangata, ā, ka whakawhirinaki ki tōna tirohanga ki te ao me tōna ake wheako.
Pērā anō i te kupu "whakawhitiwhiti kōrero", kāore he whakamārama kotahi e whakaaetia whānuitia ana mō te kupu "mokemoke". He whānui tēnei ariā, ā, e kore anō kia tino rangahaua i roto i ngā āhuatanga katoa. Waihoki, he tino whaiaro te ariā o te oranga pai (well-being), nā te mea he rerekē te whakamārama a ia tangata mō tōna ake oranga.
Ahakoa ngā rerekētanga o ngā whakamārama, e mōhiotia ana ka taea e te wheako o te mokemoke te whakaiti i te kounga o te oranga. Ina heke te kounga o te oranga, ka heke hoki te pai o te tangata ki tōna ao whānui.
Hei āwhina i te tangata e raru ana i te mokemoke, me mārama tuatahi ki te āhua motuhake o taua wheako mō taua tangata. He rerekē ngā take, ngā wheako, me ngā hiahia o ia tangata, nō reira me whai huarahi aromatawai me te tautoko e hāngai ana ki tōna ake āhuatanga.
