Expanding or not

After the 10-week project, the first thing that trike me is that there are a lot of times in life when you assume that you are expanding your contact zone, but actually you are not; however, sometimes when you do not anticipate to expand your contact zone, it expands. We cannot assume things because everything has a behind-the-scene story. 

The presentations of the 10-week project make me think about how little we know about the world. We always judge things and people from the outside without finding out what they are like inside. In order to establish a contact zone, people need to know and understanding each other. Without understanding, the contact zone cannot be expanded.
