This is how we walk and talk and function, day in, day out, immune to others' pain and loss. If it were to touch us it would cripple us or make saints of us; but, for the most part, it does not touch us. We cannot allow it to.

That indifference transfers from the screen, TV, film, Internet, and electronic games to our everyday lives.
