The guy in the airplane seat ahead of me, once we reached the first bell on the ascending plane, hits the recline button and his seat moves into my space becoming part of my existence. So I hit my button. Shortly thereafter so do a number of those seated behind me, resulting in a rearward space grab. Similarly this occurs once the captain dims the cabin lights, arms outstretched reaching for the cabin light.Yet I wonder how many take note of the broader aspects of what this means, that actions and events are done - in big ways and little - to us every day, and that our reactions are ingrained and rarely occur with conscious thought.
I think that on some level this is unfortunate. All actions have an impact on those around us. I would hope that I, and others hopefully, simply take a moment to think of the impact.
