Sometimes I look around and all I can think is...

Who the hell are these people?

Really.

I talk to all of you everyday, but I have no clue who you are.

I don't know how people manage to walk through life without realizing that they know nothing about the people they encounter.

Well not nothing, we know a good deal about the people we ecounter.

How much of the "total" we know of them and how much that matters or what it gets us is a whole 'nother topic.

The problem isn't so much knowing them. It's our faliure to understand how they percieve the world. We know only what we see, and we see only what they want us to. People have a tendency to conform (not entirely bad) which recquires us to repress parts of our personality that don't and eventually leads to the death of these traits. We still feel these traits but they keep us from relating to other people because we do not see the traits in them even though they continue to exist. Take discomfort in crowds as an example. Far more people experience this than actually show it.
