I am seeing more and more postings on social media about individuals feeling lonely. I have seen the words, "I am so lonely that I don't know how to bare it." It is good they are stating it so we can reach out to them. We need to start listening to individuals who are lonely, isolated, needing to talk. This isolation is doing greater damage to our overall health condition. It is weakening our health condition. There is a study done out of the UK that published a report that said, "Loneliness - much like hunger or thirst - is a signal that we're lacking something. Prolonged social isolation can even contribute to heart disease, stroke or premature death." These government that have locked down individuals have done a greater damage to humans by isolating them and creating greater healthcare conditions. This has got to stop because now we have got to learn how to communicate again and listen to those that are lonely. We have to listen and reach out. Isolation and loneliness has to be addressed by our corporations and their employees, healthcare workers, and in our churches. Especially with our young people who feel isolated from their friends. We are social beings and we can't be isolated. Governments have done too much damage to our nation through isolation and loneliness. You and I have got to do better. Tell me what you think.
