Sharing is caring, kisses don’t deplete

In Europe, people, no strangers, are just more.. como se dice cariƱoso.. affectionate I believe. In Spain you give 2 kisses, one on each cheek, any/every girl to girl and girl to guy. In Holland they give 3 as the greeting. When I met up with some American friends in Rome I felt the urge to lean in to give the habitual pecks and then awkwardly backed off, remembering that the cold handshake or tactile-less wave is customary. Oh yes, we’re Americans, we’re scared to touch each other.

Touching, feeling, loving, they all flow and ebb into one another. You don’t partition love, the more you share, the more you get.
