"I'm not in love..."

"...I just wanna be touched" Fantastic song by Kate Nash. That song got me thinking for a couple of days Can we live without someone's touch? and by that I mean, it doesn't matter mommy, daddy or any family or friends touch, something more than just someone saying a friendly hello, or a handshake... We need to be touched in a "different" way, in way that we know that we can be satisfied with, happy; knowing we have a positive reaction to that touch. It would pretty much be a boyfriend/girlfriend, husband/wife, lover's area to do so, to fulfill one another's desires in that way. Our body is full of connections, receptors, senders, blah! anything to communicate. I think our skin is like a modem, we receive information from the outside and we process it inside out.

Who's got that funny feeling of an energy going right through your thighs, to your heart, throat and up to your lips and eyes? there's like this tingle feeling when someone special touches you and you just react that way... or maybe I react that way and some people feel different.

My point is that we always need someone touch, more than the friendly touch but from someone that means something to you in any way. It's like a reassurance that you exist when someone touches you, holds you, kisses you. You can at least feel like you exists in someone else's world and not in just your family's because you HAVE to exist in their world... or, simply you know that you are part of their world by the mare fact that you came from that world.

The book "Smoke and Mirrors" by Neil Gaiman has broaden my vision in the way that everyone has their own story, reaction, thought, feeling and then, even like that, when you see your self through a mirror you'd be surprised of how you act; speak, move, react, etc. Sometimes, when you don't know how to handle a situation it would be good to see yourself do it so and then act, but not think of the other, only of yourself.

This is a video of Neil Gaiman reading "Instructions", one of the many poems that come in the book "Smoke and Mirrors"
