Psychologia miłości: samotność nas zabije | Wojciech Kulesza | TEDxSopot SWPS

From the deck of the Titanic, we all shout in unison, "Captain, full speed ahead!" as we gaze at the iceberg growing ahead of the bow. We lift our children so they can see better. We pull out our cell phones to be the first to upload this sight to social media. We send it to our grandparents so they can enjoy it too. This iceberg will annihilate us, and its name is loneliness.
