Taking time to have small chats about nothing in particular with people we don’t know and are unlikely ever to meet again can - from some perspectives - seem like the height of absurdity. Maybe we’re in a coffee shop and someone is preparing us a drink. Perhaps we’ve crossed a neighbour in the hallway while getting our post. Or we’re on a train, waiting for the doors to open. Why would we bother to hold up our day for a few moments, given how many things we already need to do and how many good friends we have that we haven’t seen in far too long? We may also have a more high minded defence for our silence: we aspire to be profound people and there is no way that we can get anywhere meaningful with a near or complete stranger in a compressed amount of time. We shun the smaller chats because - in the back of our minds - we tell ourselves that we are already sufficiently deeply committed to the long and consequential ones. But this is to miss the point - and the opportunities - presented by minor social exchanges. They stand, in relation to lengthy friendships, rather as haikus do next to 1,000 page novels; there are things a tiny poem can do that a comprehensive narrative will miss. There are single sentences that can mark us as much as entire volumes. 完整文本和翻译在听写群内分享 http://t.cn/AXSMfAx1
