“Any person who can remember to themselves and others what it means to be truly human is often contagious in this way, and some of us can rapidly and playfully rekindle the joyful recognition of something so amazing that no drug could ever compare. And it’s far easier than we imagine. I do it all the time. No special skill required. Just return a person from the prison of absurdity and loss that we call cult-u-are, to the forests of memory, community, play and dreaming that are our human nature and birthrights. It is not impossible to rescue them from the unthinkably shallow agonies of the isolations and impoverishments we call America. And professionals? Mostly they simply fail. To even affect the decline, let alone reverse it. They, too, are playing false roles. For cash.”
