In the long ago "golden" era preceding the electronic age..... back when TV was black and white and there were entertainments of the spoken word on something called the radio.....

Gave things away, isolated, wanted to be NOT. This was not a theme, but a real life manifestation of trouble in my version of life at that age..... gives one pause to wonder how many pre-teens and teens experience a call to AWAY with their life........

Just how many?

Glad for those who, caring, do reach out and do draw the alone into participation and dialogue. This breaks the string of isolation.
