Some distances are not measured in miles but in the hesitation between reaching out and holding back. This poem gently reminds us what can happen when courage takes that one small step. Beautiful.

A lovely meditation on a primary sense.

What is so amazing to me is that touch is one of the primary methods for babies and young children to begin to make sense of the world. How awesome is it that we are created with this innate understanding that touch is what connects us to the world and each other. Thank you for the reminder to embrace that child-like birth right gift!
