What’s wrong with me ” Like Lisa, many of us experience loneliness. The truth is that all people, no matter what their age or character — even the most outgoing, wealthy and popular — experience loneliness at least sometimes. It’s healthy and natural to want to be around people who care. After all, we’ve all heard “No man is an island.” That’s true. We all need others in our lives.

Yet recently millions around the globe have downloaded FaceApp, which allows users to see how they might age in real life. Many had fun with joking that they love the FaceApp old filter. Beneath the humor is a serious subject: How do we learn to relate to our future selves It’s important that we try to because it could help strengthen the long-term decis ... ...
