We go along on our journey, and we build up relationships and make acquaintances and we get connected to others. These moments are all part of the human experience and are integral to who we are and what makes us positive members of our community. Without much thought, we reinforce these connections with a handshake, a hug, a kiss on the cheek, holding hands, and many other ways that we naturally embrace. These “touches” work in harmony with our biology, and our nature, and they matter to creating a productive community. We, of course, should always be respectful and understand how each of us connect but it is also important that we do not avoid touch and the feeling of connection that it creates. Here’s to being connected on all levels, with a gentle touch at the right time, and a journey that is even more special.

Loving life when I connect through touch
