They also had shortsightedness from not seeing beyond others' shortcomings. Deafness was diagnosed from stopping listening to Jesus daily. Jesus provided a free consultation and natural remedies including daily gratitude, peace, patience, brotherhood, humility and love.

[Challenge:Future] Breaking away: shared fun, creativity and joyChallenge:Future
The document discusses loneliness and lack of human connection that can occur even in crowded public spaces. A Bulgarian blogger notes that in crowded stores, people are viewed as "nobodies" and are not greeted or paid attention to. Another source states that modern hurried life causes people in front of us to be seen as impersonal staff rather than individuals deserving attention. Wikipedia notes that loneliness frequently happens in heavily populated cities where people feel isolated among millions of others.
The document proposes a model called Micro Social Business (MSB) that combines microcredit and social business.
