The Six Degrees

What a small world we are living at... there's no doubt that our world looks big, our nature is stunning. I often thought how tiny our human is in front of it. However, in terms of people connection, it's still small. Have you ever met a new friend in a party - and realize he / she is your friend's friend? If you heard of Six degrees of separation, probably you know what I'm trying to say then -



Six degrees of separation is the idea that all living things and everything else in the world are six or fewer steps away from each other so that a chain of "a friend of a friend" statements can be made to connect any two people in a maximum of six steps.


We connect each other so easily these days - by internet, social media, work, gathering, dating apps... Establishing a new connection is not hard - the point is - how you maintain it. It's like growing a new plant, you need to nurture it with water & sunlight, most important - love. It may sounds a bit weird to love a new friend, but I'm trying to say is, if you meet someone you'd like to establish your connection with, do nurture this relationship with love & care.

You meet different people - probably you know who you like & hate. What matter is their personality / feeling / outlook / soul / career. Sometimes I do feel maybe the education level isn't that important. What matter is you do share the same world. Some people you could never share the world with him / her even though how hard you've tried - you've struggling yourself to fit yourself in - you change yourself - but still you could never live with him / her - you just fail to fit into his / her world which is so much different from yours.

To match someone, maybe personality isn't that important too. However, what it DO matter is the living environment probably construct someone - construct your habit / lifestyle / taste / preference / vision / way of thinking / behaviour / what you do. Can you communicate with someone well? It's a matter of mixing of the above factors to see if you could live into his / her world.

It seems a easy theory, but it really depends on luck to whether you could meet that person who lives the same world with you. Isn't it?
