Touch

Ever wonder how touch can actually affect someone life? Touch is a very important sense of human being. Every kid need to be touched by their mother and this can actually give the kid sense of love, belonging and felt cared. Kids without exposure of touch senses will eventually be less secured.

I read this from Choice and Changes psychology book. However, this doesn't end with kid; it goes on. Even when we grown up, we still need touches, a pat from someone close, hug, all these give us sense of belonging and we will actually felt acknowledged.

I personally experienced it within these two years. Hit from friends, pat from friends, a "semi-hug" from friends, "poke" from friends and even massage from friends will actually made me happy, appreciated, belonged. Especially if it were someone as close as your brother/sister. It really does.

However, there will always be a limit of "touching" for friends, if its not, it will be a perverted to simply touch others or it might even violate others privacy space~

So, have you pat/hug anyone today?
