Six Degrees of Separation
by Amalia
Isn’t it cool and scary at the same time that it takes us not more than 6 human-to-human connections to be related with anyone in the world?
I knew about six degrees of separation when I first joined Friendster many years ago. The website allowed us to see the connections that we have with other people and it’s the only coolest thing about it, really. I encountered this term again by accident a few days ago.
Every time I met new people, there’s a great chance that we share common friends. Or their friends had some kind of connection with my friends. I’m talking about the Indonesians, of course.
The world is indeed so small. And it’s becoming smaller and smaller. Let’s keep on spreading our wings and encountering new friendships so that there’ll be less misunderstandings and prejudice between us; and create the world full of loving and peaceful people 🙂
