"Indifference is the paralysis of the soul, a premature death" (Anton Chekhov)

Try this test: how many people in your life are you truly interested in? How many of them touch your heart, how many of them touch you with even the most trivial gestures?? Few, very few. This doesn't mean you're a bad, cynical, or dull person. In reality, Indifference is one of the many tributaries of the great river of globalization, which has overturned, for better or for worse, our lifestyles and even our way of being together.The larger and more numerous we have become, the more everything has become magnified, and the less we are able to see the other, especially if space, paradoxically, distances them from us.

• Indifference chills feelings. An indifferent person is doomed to cross the threshold of loneliness; their heart never lights up, for anyone. Aging before its time, the indifferent are like a candle that goes out, not even slowly.
• Indifference poisons the well of curiosity. Often combined with cynicism, indifference is a state of numbness to the world around us. Curiosity fails to thrive, knowledge stagnates, and our gaze is fixed solely on our own navel.
• Indifference is a defeat. According to Einstein, the world's danger comes not from man's natural evil, but from the indifference of those who witness this evil without lifting a finger. These are men and women who have lost their chance at a fulfilling life.
