Give me some space!
When you hear the phrase "give me some space", it automatically reminds you of any of your relationships that you didn't feel you had a place to express your emotions or any physical room to move around! Today I am talking about "personal space" during the pandemic! Growing up in eastern culture, we had no concept of having our own "personal space" in any definition. When you are living with an extended family or living in a small apartment, and on the top of that having neighbors who are always watching your every move, you end up sharing your toys, bed, room, food and even friends with your siblings! There’s no fine line between anyone in family regarding "this is mine". Even as adults, people sometimes live with their parents and don't see that as a “lack of independence". Things may have changed now as everyone wants to follow western culture: nuclear family, independent life etc. I am sure everything is not perfect living
