28% of Americans live alone.
Yes, more than 1/4 of our fellow citizens live alone.
Now, I understand some of them want it that way, but most don’t.
Even with the advent of texting, emailing and Zoom, the lonely remain lonely.
Oh, I know doing something is better than not reaching out at all.
And, of course, the pandemic has interrupted our ability to visit the lonely.
There is a tune playing on our piano right now.
It’s an oldie, but goodie: “Think of Me.”
Do you think of the lonely people you know or do you need reminding?
If you don’t think of them, they may feel, after a lifetime of effort, they’ve been cast aside.
Will you do something on a regular basis for lonely friends or family members?
If not today, when?
