What Our Bookshelf Say About Us?
In a time of online meetings, our home-work environment might be saying something about ourselves that unconscionably be helping us building relationships through social distance.
Today Zoom or Teams meetings are a very common way of communication, we might have already forgotten how recent this is, because for some of us feels longer than it has, but this way of working and communicating is still very new.
As people, we are still adapting in our relationships, jobs, education, family, and life routines. Exploring what works and what new ways fit better for every occasion and searching for a balance between each aspect of our lives.
Leaving aside the mistakes, jokes, informal vs formal attire, connection issues, family interruptions, and more… the one I’m going to center here is the space in our homes where online meetings take place, especially when we choose bookshelves as our background walls.
For me, a person who enjoys reading, this had been an interesting thing to see. Although for some the main objective might be looking for a less informal spot or having a dedicated space in their homes like an office or study… books are a unique way of getting to know someone.
