Touch
We all crave a loving touch. It makes us feel wanted, looked after, comfortable with who we are. Untouchables are the outcasts of society, condemned to live forever as subhuman. Solitary confinement – being beyond the reach of others – is the ultimate punishment. Of course, touch is not just physical. When we say someone or something touched us, we mean that we are moved, emotionally affected. Touch is the language of the heart. Our loved ones are usually those who touch us most deeply, touch the places we most shield from the world, the sides of ourselves we hide for fear of rejection.
