RE: Why do we see so much depression in the world, and to what extent is the negative media responsible for it? - Ecotrain Question of the Week

in #ecotrain6 years ago

Thank you for sharing your insight on the QOTW. I admire your openess and honesty. It is so true that we have been detached from a sense of community and sadly it is something that has been growing for many years. I often question whether in our quest to improve civilisation we have lost our instinct to support one another.
I like that you note, "We live in a selfish world, where it's every person for themselves. " and I do think in the last 10 years or so social media has contributed to that. Take for instance Instagram and Facebook where our worthiness is validated by how many likes we get. The interaction is gone and it feels like a giant popularity contest.
There are exceptions to the rule and it is possible to find people in this world who value community and others for who they are.
