touching people

We didn't really get a chance to talk about Justin's excersise...But, I was thinking about how interesting it is when others (or myself) do something that breaks the rules of the social "norms". Personally, I think it usually seems acceptable if the person is sincere (and ofcourse, the action isn't offensive). There is a definite difference though, when someone does something out of the "norm" and there intentions arn't sincere. This is when I find it harder to accept and or do myself. I tried to find a way to be sincere in touching these people even though I was going out of my way to do it because of our instructions. I appriciate the push out of the comfort zone, however.
