Strange Boundaries
Boundaries amaze me. Who decides them? Who fixes them? I am not talking about a Line of Control or a fence. Boundaries that encapsulate an environment. Boundaries that define human behavior and interaction. Let me explain.
Scene 1. I am having this deep technical discussion with my boss in the confines of a conference room.
Scene 2. After playing volleyball with a bunch of collegues, which includes my boss, I am there in the changing room getting ready for a shower. The technical discussion somehow sneaks in to the changing room and I end up discussing it with my boss in the changing room. As we talk, my boss begins to strip down for the shower. The clothes come down, but the discussion continues.
It was the same discussion. Same participants. But would it be appropriate to be nude in a conference room? When a discussion can take place in both the conference and changing rooms, what makes it inappropriate to be nude in a conference room? This is not the only example, but the others weren't as decent as this one! (you can do the guess work).
Whenever I go to a rest room, I always wonder how a thin wall seperates two people s(h)itting in adjacent stalls. Boundaries amaze me.
Boundaries form an environment, which decides human interaction and behavior. But who draws them and how are they drawn? Is this civilization?
And by the way, nowadays, after a game, I go home for a shower.
