Illuminate Question 14
My vision is of a world where we feel less lonely and less anxious.
Today we leave the path that led us to loneliness and despair.
To feel less lonely is to feel we all belong. We are connected, and begin to see each other again.
We will have a new understanding of how important it is to be with each other.
Looking each other in the eye without fear.
To move away from fear, we want to move towards trust.
On the street of a city, we flirt through our eyes.
Flirtation and the spark of light as recognition that “I see you.”
Rescuing the word “flirt”. There’s something more at stake: a light-heartedness and innocence.
It can only happen in a culture of trust.
Eye contact in light of cross-cultural differences and diversity.
Being seen.
An uplifting story of seeing.
Final answer.
