Human connection is not so common in our age of connectivity. We see lots of people, but find our little cocoons to hide in.
As I write this, I’m sitting in cloud-filled rainforest at a retreat in Ecuador. Before I came, I had some anxiety about meeting everyone, worrying about what they might think of me, and thinking that I would be awkward at talking to everyone, or wouldn’t fit in. This anxiety made me not want to come. That would have been a huge mistake.
