so there's this thing called eye contact. and sometimes it's just so hard to keep.
it kind of goes along with how you avoid talking to someone by pulling out your cell phone...
when someone's walking past you, regardless of whether you know them or not, you look down. you'll look up right before you pass if you know them and smile or say hi, but otherwise you both look down just so you can avoid one thing: eye contact.
why is it so intimidating to just look someone in the eyes?
in the movie baby mama, steve martin's character at one point says to tina fey's character, "congratulations. i want to reward you with five minutes of uninterrupted eye contact".
just the thought of that makes me cringe. your eyes can tell so much about what you're thinking that i feel really exposed when i hold eye contact for a long time. anyways. eye contact makes me laugh sometimes and that's all i wanted to share.
What a tender topic. I just love thinking about eye contact and all the marvelous moments it preciously provides me. It's such a delightful day when I'm able to see my best buds and just look em straight in the eye and tell them, "Hey faithful friend forever!" Such a great post EJ :)
