Often people that say they “don’t care” actually do. The moment they call your house, send you an email, talk to your family or discuss you with their friends and family is when they give themselves away.

For me, Los Angeles, New York, where I don't know my neighbors, where people don't necessarily care if they know their neighbors, I'm missing things that truly fed my soul when I was younger, the exchanges between people, the caring and the shared history with people. ↗
