I went for a drive this afternoon to just get out of the house. Couples strolling down the street hand-in-hand, men, women, and groups of teenagers all apparently busy with daily tasks presumably for their families or significant others. No group paying attention to any other which is a thing where I live. I been to other cities where people still talk to one another - stranger to stranger. But around here, unless I've met you through some sort of app - you don't exist. That's the mentality anyway. It's a lonely place to see yourself among so many humans and be completely alone. So then I got to thinking, I should wear a t-shirt with "Hi" on it and see what happens (of course, I'd never have the courage). Or, what if people wore some sort of item, maybe a ring or necklace, with an emblem (like the Freemasons) that signified that you were part of this lonely world and that you welcome discussion from other lonelies - that it was safe and ok to strike up a conversation with you. A sort of "wedding" band for those of us who live in this secret society.
Sometimes it just gets so lonely out there, I have to entertain myself somehow.

), but can you imagine the terrible consequences that would happen if something like that existed in this world? People being humiliated, becoming easy prey for criminals/other mean people... also, seems like everyone is more interested in their own phones these days, who even looks up to check out who's passing by? The people around them?
