Through all this there is something that we are missing. As humans we are social creatures. We need to touch and feel each other. That touch just to know we are here. That hug where you can feel that other persons heartbeat. That handshake where you can feel a pulse. That kiss the soft lips and sweet breath against your skin.
Holding hands you interweave. Feeling a closeness. Mixing sweat and skin. Your heartbeats sync into one and building a bond.
With the social distancing we are losing this closeness. As social creatures we need this bond. The bond keeps us united. This bond shows we are here for one other. These bond keep us together.
Start in your household show your loved ones you still love them. Then branch out show your family and friends. Then a stranger if they let you. Touch shows we are alive. Touch is comforting. Touching shows us we care.
Be safe let’s work on healing us…..
