As of November 19, 2007, The United States Census Bureau’s POPClock (a clock that measures the American population based on some sort of ingenious calculation) states that the American population is currently 303, 409, 035. Given the grand scale of things, I find it appropriate to say we are for the most part, a social country.

Our days rely on interactions. Our day is not just what we personally make it; it is what those around us make it as well. At the end of it all, by 6:00pm or so, the chosen or not chosen interactions with others compile into the quality of each person’s day.

I can look on the bright side of getting robbed on a street corner in Detroit all I want, and although I might be smiling on my way home from reporting it at the police office (I can take a pretty confident guess I would not be), I would still be without a purse. My life and credit score will have been affected by a complete stranger. I will inevitably spend hours dealing with a situation I did not get myself into.

Although this particular situation is negative and grim, my point is that in a nation with over 303 million people, interactions between one another are key. How we “deal” with the situations other people put us into is what helps us fail and what helps us flourish. On a day-to-day basis, dealing with situations and other people who put us in them may not seem too difficult. However, if you tell me that, I will not believe you, simply because I have never encountered a “deal-free” day.
