alone in a world of wounds?

Professor Morton,

Today I asked you if you thought that thinking The Ecological Thought 

separates you from others who are not thinking it. 

The Thought preaches connectedness, 

but can perhaps be pessimistically seen as disconnecting.

I just found a quote from Aldo Leopold 

that speaks to this separation from others. He said,

"One of the penalties of an ecological education 

is that one lives alone in a world of wounds."

You disagree, right?
