is not the solution - commitment is. Whether you are in prison, homeless, disabled, minority or otherwise differentiated from the mainstream, the most important thing is to believe that other people CARE. And I join these categories together provocatively...

There is, in many people ( possibly all), a feeling of being incomplete. None of us is perfect. But being imperfect is not an excuse for remaining so. One can only reach out.

IMO, a sense of belonging - on whatever scale suits you - is one of the most important influences on the development of character.
