Another Look at Loneliness

Loneliness is more deadly than air pollution, alcoholism, and more. It has been linked to higher levels of stress, which can cause physical and psychological harm. When I see people who I sense are lonely, I want to do a better job of reaching out. If you are picking up on this too, don't pick up and leave. Pick up and move in. Listen. Be present. These are the things that make loneliness better. Make sure people know that we care. We can do more than turn a blind eye to loneliness.
