-They also liked thinking deeply about the word 'Comfort' and what does it mean to feel 'Lonely'

-How connection can be a protective factor for not only our students but ourselves.
-It really struck me to think that RANDOM acts of kindness are not as beneficial because isn't necessarily build connections which is required for empathy to grow.
