I’ve felt it pretty well all my life: a connection to those around me. It must be the same for others, I often ponder…after all, we humans are social creatures.

Time and circumstance lay the foundation, fruitful soil, allow bonds to form — not always, but frequently enough — something more than shared experience,

Common view, emotional response, makes us feel we’re not alone, makes me feel so, connected to, thankful for,

My people.
