group, feeling accepted is regarded as the most important driver of meaning. When other

people think you matter and treat you as if you matter, you believe you matter, too.

Though we all share a need to belong, in the first decades of the 20th century, many

influential psychologists and physicians did not acknowledge this fundamental aspect of human

attention to child-raising, this view shifted and they began to examine and affirm the vital

importance of attachment in early life. They discovered that people, whatever their age, needed

more than food and shelter to live full and healthy lives.

But, sadly, many of us lack close ties. At a time when we are more connected digitally than
