The really sad part to that truth is noone has learned from that mistake. Our neighborhoods are farther andfarther apart and no matter how close you are to your neighbors ( apts for example ) It is more acceptable to smile, nod and keep going then to get to know who you live by, be-friend and enjoy each others company. I wish that never happened to our society. I believe the human psyche is geared twords living in a
communitynot in solitude.
( Solitude not meaning completely by yourself, - but meaning- just living with family members with no acknowledgment of others around you.. )
