[ Social ]

We are social beings.  It doesn’t matter what controls or restrictions are put on us, eventually we will default to being social.

I had the fortunate opportunity tonight to re-connect socially with colleagues this evening, as social events slowly and cautiously kick off again. 

The underlying ‘joy’ of the event reminded me that while screen-based interactions are a reasonable substitute, it will never replace the real thing.

We need eye contact, we need body language, we need the frisson of connection that happens when souls meet.  This is the strength of human interaction.  We will do it with abandon again.
