Yeah right. Life is not fair. Self-preservation is needed.
If Simon and Garfunkel read these words, for sure they will sing their song:
"I have my books And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me I am a rock I am an island
And a rock feels no pain And an island never cries."

Yet, reach out to people, anyway.
