This from Esther Perel is especially giving me lots to chew on: “And so people have easily 1,000 virtual friends, but no one they can ask to feed their cat.” We’re more globally connected, but perhaps less locally connected than ever.

Happy new year, Mary Chris! That line stopped me, too. It's true, what a paradox: Drifting apart, even as we are seemingly more accessible.
