Touch, Trust, and Relationships...

Trust is the prerequisite of any communication and the foundation stone of any relationship, be it personal or professional.

Touch is a key factor in interpersonal relationships and plays an important role in building trust. Touch can be good or bad, hard or soft, nurturing or paralyzing. Touch is tangible as well as intangible, as it can take both physical and abstract form. Touch can be physical, verbal or non-verbal, or emotional.

Touch is more than just a sensation. It is a tool and a weapon at the same time.

One can use touch to heal or hurt the body, mind, and soul, and to build or breach trust.

Touch has the power to convey and create emotions. It can convey trust, love, care, hatred, and anger, and develop trust, love, care, hatred, anger, and hurt.

The same touch that brings you closer to someone can also separate you from them if you fail to feel and acknowledge that you are betraying someone's trust and breaking the relationship while building on the other.

The outcome depends upon your intention, and where, when, and how you touch make your intention very clear to the other person.

Remember –

Relationships bloom when nurtured with trust. Trust is built when we stay in touch and weakens when the touch is lost. A touch that generates trust can tame even the wildest creatures.

Trust is fragile but binds strongest and that’s the reason-

When trust is broken, it is easy to forgive but difficult to forget and even more difficult to restore.

How and what one communicates is always in one’s control, which means he/she is the owner of the outcome and it is by their choice.

Touch can either make or break your image.

Mind your touch, and your trust and relationships will be taken care of.

Act responsibly, choose wisely.
