What happened to appreciation?

Dear Editor,

Whatever happened to the feeling of sincere appreciation that was deeply felt within us? It seems that for some time people, the feelings of appreciation is short-lived and gone in seconds.

I will give you an example of the appreciation feeling and how long it lasts.

It’s like a very hot skillet on the stove and you flick some water on it and you can see how fast the water is vaporized. Well, that’s how long some people’s feelings of appreciation last.
