I think the answer lies in our shared humanity. Not necessarily looking into everyone's souls, but acknowledging we're not so alone in our feelings as we think we are. If only we would reach out, look around, sing some heart songs, and listen to other people's heart songs.
What does that mean?

We can’t do it with our bodies so we do it with our minds. Our bodies show up where they’re supposed to, when they’re supposed to, but that’s it. We go through the motions & are “here”, when really, we’re waaaaay over there.
If you want some ideas on what the absence of presence does & how to move into a present life, listen in.
