Appearances
you know, cultural difference that I noticed.
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
That that kind of hints at what you were talking about, how in our early environment we had so much connection.
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
that is, you know, in the real world that I lived in and as I've gone around the world I find it common is the the the act of greeting.
voice-verified
So for example, in backwoods, Mississippi where I'm from, if two cars pass on the road, you wave at each other.
voice-verified
Or, you know, sometimes people would be walk working in their garden, you know, weeding or whatever out in the front yard.
voice-verified
If a car passes by, everybody stops and turns and waves to the car.
voice-verified
You have no idea who it is, right?
voice-verified
And I had students in South Africa, you know, that I was talking to.
voice-verified
And they were telling me how like, yeah, sir, you know, at home, you know, we all speak to each other.
voice-verified
But I come here to the University of Cape Town and I walk down the hallway and I look someone in the eye and I speak and they don't respond and I feel like a fool.
voice-verified
Right.
voice-verified
I you know, students have said that to me.
voice-verified
And so I wonder about when we talk about connection,
voice-verified
the the passing connections, right?
voice-verified
Looking a person in the eye and just saying hello.
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
Do those experiences shape the brain differently?
voice-verified
So you know, there's another thing that happened to me personally that has to do with expectation.
