Dear Murtaza:

I read just a part of your recent post and will have to return to it later, probably in a few hours from now. I was thinking earlier, about what you think in regard to being a social being. Coyotes for example are social beings, or social animals, and when one gets separated from its social group, it becomes very distressed. After some time, separated still, it becomes emotionally and physically sick. A social animal needs others of its species so to be emotionally okay. How do you view yourself in this regard?
