Loneliness of the individual

Letter April 20, 2019
People have no time or inclination to have interaction even with their family members

KARACHI: Our society is increasingly becoming lukewarm to finer sensibilities. We see the number of disagreeable people growing in the society. Most people are now gruff towards others.

Those who want to be friendly with others are given a cold shoulder for no reason at all. Man is a social animal, so he wants company.

But how can one get good company in such an environment? We are now more interested in communicating with those who live far away from us than with those we live with us.

People have no time or inclination to have interaction even with their family members. This is resulting in growing loneliness of the individual.
