Campaign to End Loneliness: Be More Us
According to the Campaign to End Loneliness, there are 1.2 million chronically lonely older people and 9 million lonely people in the UK. Have we forgotten how to make friends? In this video, young children show us how it’s done with strangers in a coffee shop. Touching and funny, their openness and love are like beacons of hope reminding us what it’s like to live without baggage or barriers. If we were more like them, the world would be a less lonely place, with more friendships occurring naturally and less people forgotten. It inspires us to be more courageous and accepting--for the benefit of ourselves and others--and to be mindful of those who might be lonely.

This film is very touching
because we are indeed one big interconnected body, who are presently temporarily disconnected.
bravo!
Actually we propose an antidote to loneliness and it begins with smiling as demonstrated in the video.http://resiliencemultiplier.com/guide/smiling-mirror-neurons-and-resilience/ Please contact us: juliangresser77@gmail.com www.alliancesfordiscovery.org;www.resiliencemultiplier.com; www.bighearttechnologies.com
