Asking to remain name and genderless the individual continues, "Well, what am I to do about it? And where are my hands. I don't see my neighbors."

Are we surrounding ourselves with the proper insulation needed to care for ourselves to mellow our feelings of angst? Check out the Pew chart. Something to think about. Subscribe!
