Where's Your Tickle Spot?

That simple question sounds so immature.  Right?  I mean, who goes around asking that question?  Just the word is odd to say for me… tickle. What?  So weird.  Some of you may immediately dread the thought of someone poking your sides or knees at just the thought of this question.  It was brought to my attention by a 7 year old.

I starting thinking about what that actually could mean.  It’s obviously someone finding joy at watching someone squirm from something so simple.  It’s a vulnerable spot we don’t want people to know.  We hide it.  We don’t usually want others to know that if someone pokes you in your side you’ll squirm.  It’s a weakness we don’t like to have exposed. 

In the moment of being “exposed” and vulnerable, we don’t enjoy the laughing or taunting…I believe.  I’ll attest to this.  The being vulnerable part isn’t the biggest problem we face, but it’s the desire to not hear the audible laughs that somehow amplify possible lies of “imperfection” within.  Is that too far out there to think of this? 

Hope this makes you think about the concept for yourself.  Being tickled isn’t too much fun.  However, sometimes it’s good to hear a belly-aching laugh from being tickled.
