I don't think science can explain...

Atoms form molecules form DNA form cells form tissue that we call skin.
And by some divine design there are nerves thrown into the fray.
Why is it, then, when two different skins rub together, as atoms and molecules do,
our nerves react, sending electrical and chemical impulses to the
lump of tissue we call a brain?
Well, the true question here is, why do we like it?
Aside from our mental conditioning
Aside from what chemical messages are sent from brain to
limb, limb to brain.
Why. Do. We. Like. It.
More importantly.
Why do we allow ourselves to get
"in trouble"
because of it?

Why is touch good?
Why is some touch better than others?
(Even the same kind of touch, but different people.)
There are more important questions that stem from
"What is the meaning of life?"
But how often do we get
"caught up"
in those?
