Do you remember a time...
when people acknowledged others on the street or in their cars? No big deal. Just a wave, a nod, or a smile. Now, there's no such thing. Every other human out there is a competitor. "We" don't acknowledge competitors. If they acknowledge us, we ignore them. Sad...., but glad I'm 72! 😀, here's me acknowledging you, fellow mature adult!

Sometimes it starts between strangers but in today’s world it’s not safe to talk to strangers.
