As a "modern" society, we are some of the most depressed, sick, and unhappy humans history has ever seen (unscientific statement not based on any other facts that what I pulled out of my fanny, but it's a firm and beautiful fanny). And to think all it takes to bring some healing is a little talking and interest on the part of another. Wow what have we become.
