Interdependence

According to research on hamsters reported in the Journal of Psychoneuroendocrinology last December, just allowing hamsters to share a cage with a brother or a sister — rather than being isolated — cut by half the time it took for a wound to heal. The sharing hamsters also had lower levels of cortisol, the stress hormone.

Now consider the positive healing effect of visiting a friend, neighbour....

Remember "the journey" should bring us from dependence to independence to interdependence.

Enjoy the trip!
