Touch! Week - I'm not sure

So we're back on track and I thought we would start this off with the theme of touch. It's interesting because we totally need it to survive. But we can go a long time without it and notice necessarily, until someone brushes up against you in a bus, shakes your hand or hugs you out of the blue. At least that's how it is for me. In a world of personal space and relationships via cell phone or internet and all of our increasingly busy multi-tasking lives actual human contact is sometimes put on the back burner. Did you know that massage can aid in depression? Not simply to reduce stress but because of the human on human contact (in a friendly, nurturing way). So go out and touch somebody. The good touch. Not the bad the touch.
