I have to admit I am unaware of the overall feelings of being alone that you say are growing in this country. Does the lack of personal interaction now because of the internet have something to do with that? Is that more prevalent in older or younger generations? Or equal? I must confess that I am not experiencing that in the circles that I associate with. I also think that if you talk about our history with the Native Americans, immigrants, colored, etc, they can also tell you about not being humanized. This has been a problem in our country since the beginning of our history. And it’s a damn shame we don’t get it still…..and maybe never will. On a brighter note, thank you for writing about some very great observations that definitely need to be improved upon.
