A world without touch. For those who live and work online

Life online has its own characteristics – most virtual. No, this does not mean that these people are “fake” and contacts “newsprivacy”, it means that the specificity of communication is that it lacks familiar to our psyche indication of the presence of another person.

Remember the time when you met a close friend in a cafe or came to visit him. What was it like? What are you talking about? Laughed? Was talking to? Probably hugged at the meeting? Remember his smile, eyes, the embarrassment, the smell, some awkwardness, laughter, hot tea or coffee you drink, maybe a glass of wine, home furnishings or a table in a cafe, rough cloths, the warmth of the cushion on the chair, the smile of a waiter, your mood, the yellow leaves outside the window or maybe it was summer and the window was filtering the street noise?

 





 

 

 

 

 

Sounds, smells, feelings, touch, gestures, eyes meeting eyes, the subtle movements of the lips, speech, which is heard as music, but at some point makes sense – everything that is called a word - meeting.

A huge saturation of a single moment of human life.

 

The modern world is slowly but surely going into isolation. more and more people live and work online.At some point the person begins to experience inexplicable hunger for the very thing from which with such joy you running for snacks in the cafe, on the morning gossip over a Cup of coffee, to discuss the new blouses and the latest fashion trends, laughter and news of our Department. “Live communication”, no matter how empty it might seem at the time; for creative impulses when something could come up and do together, at the burning eyes of colleagues, by words and emotions, disputes, views, living voices, smells, sounds, touch.

All this is very difficult to replace the video on the computer, the music in the headphones and touch the buttons on the keyboard.

Working mostly online, I began to value personal meetings. Gatherings with close friends, personal conversations with mother, the wards, my brother-in guests; the hours we can spend with her husband.

 

Loneliness is one of the existential Givens of life, that person have to be reconciled.





 

Loneliness is of several types:

Interpersonal (interpersonal ) loneliness due to a real lack of intimacy. And not too close.

Interpersonalne (internal) loneliness felt when a person experiences isolation from some parts of yourself. He anaesthetizes a portion of your experience and feelings. Feels abandoned him.

Existential loneliness is associated with the experience of its sole responsibility for his life.

 





Each of us is seeking its own recipe for life in which it would be possible to be with someone – to feel your closeness, affection, love; and to be one with your space, plans, dreams and preferences.Is not this happiness?)) published
