@veronicacobb8691 Hi Veronica, My opinion. Here’s 4cents worth. It started with television, and movies at home. Our stimulation and entertainment, is at the turn of a knob, touch of a screen. We are siloed, watching our iPads, our phones. Is it two generations ago now? That we got together to make music, play charades, go dancing. (That sounds a lot healthier) even though we did drink and drive, etc.
Is the back door always open, at your neighbours, and friends houses?
Ten years ago, we were traveling in the Philippines, going to smaller islands. I would get up really early, and walk through a small fishing village. The kids were happy and running around. They’d show me their ball, or their rooster.
They were poor, but didn’t know it. They had a village, watching out for them. They didn’t have phones.
My heart swells, just remembering those happy faces.
Create community however you can. Join a hiking, flower arranging, etc, club.
