This week, we have learnt some concepts about space. People usually feel uncomfortable when there has no enough space for them to do private things. In my opinion, space is a symbol which stands for freedom.
More space is needed to have a sense of freedom. Several days ago, Bowen told me one thing which makes me surprised. He, who lives in Beijing, has never took the train before he came to Singapore, he explained to me that though Beijing has more advanced public transportations than most cities in China, it also famous for its crowd. It is hard for him to find a narrow space to stand or to make a slight movement on the train. The sense of lacking of freedom drives him to choose other transports than train.
Also, every time I went to study room in River Valley Hostel, it is hard to see people sitting together if there has enough seats. People tend to choose a seat which is quiet and allows them to put their arms on the table. For me, this kind of seat will make me feel free because whatever I am doing will not affect other’s study, and I will not have a feeling that I was under watching by someone.
All in all, people need space to have a sense of freedom.
Space is also important for me. Without space, I will feel uncomfortable and get annoyed. No matter what relationship is between two people, space is still needed. Sometimes it is not only the physical space but also the mental space that people want to keep. I think if we give others space, others will give us space, too.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I think that space is what every single one need. Even bewteen friends, it is proper to leave some space for each other.
ReplyDeleteAs for me, space is important. It is a kind of balance that we should keep some space between others, neither too far, nor too near. It is a skill we should learn rather than a thought in mind.
ReplyDeleteEnough space is very important for everyone. The physical space determines the comfort level in our daily activities.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, the psychic space is also vital. We all need our privacy. We want keep our secrets and don't want others to ask the question about these aspects.
as for me, even though i prefer to be with others, i still need space to stay alone.
ReplyDeleteI also think that lackvof space can make people feel uncomfortable. For me, as I has been on trains for many times, I has got used to that crowded situation. I think that as long as people who are in a crowd try not to bother each other, they can still go through that situation.
