Excellent essay. One that I will read more than once and share, hopefully discuss with others. I believe it is like the lyrics of a Dylan song, "Well you know something is happening here, you just don't know what it is,?( do you Mr Jones) ".more or less explains our current times. A feeling that, yes something IS happening. Something very much not normal. I thought I was the only person to read Bowling Alone. As an observation a very insightful book. So many forces of our society in 2023 is reinforced with how we consider normal life, the internet work from home, streaming TV, growth in single households. This really set us up for the means for losing a shared sense of an "us" in democracy
Thanks for the invite. Definitely sticking around for more!
Dr. Jennifer Mercieca, I agree with you. Unfortunately, I've doled out all my pitiful pennies supporting others. I hope you build a sufficient base to continue to spread your thoughts.
