Perhaps none of that is {your} fault, Pen. But here is where we have to say that no man is an island. And the betterment of humanity does rely on compassion and I dare say that your individualist 'tude is what relegated many people to the Holocaust. As you can so unthinkingly discard human life.

That person depicted in the OP may be, if given the love and stability presently lacking in his life, the one who finds a cure for some dreadful cancer! You gotta have faith in folk Pen.

Don't stop believing in folk.
