How long has it been since you last gave or were given touch?
In my life, the times when I have thrived the most have involved relationships where we hold hands, hug, massage, cuddle, kiss.
They can be platonic friends, romantic partners, family.
The most important part is the touch.
Yet everything- even things that we need for life- has a price. Food for your money. Oxygen for carbon dioxide. It is a process, a cycle.
Touch, and along with it intimacy, has a lofty price of vulnerability and possible rejection.
It is a brand of courage that I would like to cultivate at university.

If ever I successfully switch major to Psychology, this would be one of topics that I consider for my dissertation. Wish me luck! 🙂
