Question was asked before. Do you go and actually seek out the downtrodden in your neighborhood?  Do you find the friendless?  Im not talking about homeless shelters but do you actually seek out those who look sad?  If you walk into a restaurant and see someone eating alone, do you approach her and try to make a friend, especially when you’re in a group?  Let’s be real...friendships are more organic than that.

14:54 You are responding to several people. Let's be real. Friendships are more organic, however taking the example of Wonder, I'm sure that child sat next to many children and did group projects and participated in other activities with people who made sure not to insult him but also tried to say as little as possible. They had no interest in doing anything to help him even if their lives were connected to some activity or another. For myself, yes, if I hear someone is having a hard time, I try to help even if it causes more work or doesn't further my own goals. I don't go up to strangers and I don't seek out those who look sad, but there are plenty of people I know of that could use an uplifting gesture.[/quote]
