Craving for Connection

One of the themes that have emerged from this pandemic experience is our need for connection. Due to the need to social distance, many people who live alone have become very isolated. Pets have been amazing companions. It seems their contribution to our quality of life has never been more obvious than now. But, humans have been forging special relationships with animals since the beginning of recorded history. If you don't have a pet, go to an urban park where there are squirrels and birds. Just observing animals in the wild can be a fulfilling experience.
