Feels like we are being driven apart more each day. What are some things or topics that bring people together? And I don’t mean into the same room, I mean emotionally even just for a minute.
Unfortunately, the best way to bring angry people together is a good scapegoat.
Food. I work with a pretty diverse bunch of people from all different places and we always end up talking about food. What we ate recently, what we’re having for dinner, what someone made that surprised us, what we ate at recent functions, what our favourite childhood foods were, something new we tried recently… it goes on and on as an endlessly varied topic. It really does seem to be a great unifier of people. I never ever get sick of talking about food!
