Tissue: More than a physical item

Tissues are widely used for physical purposes and that is the initial purpose of use. They have satisfied the physical need and continue to grow in this regard. They have simplified our daily lives and came with safety features for sensitive area use. The growth for tissue dependency increases by the day because more people know the importance of its use.

Though tissues are helpful for physical use, they have also taken the role to be more than physical items. They also come in handy when our feelings come to play and they serve as a companion that helps us get through emotional turmoil.

The comfort and convenience of tissues can constitute so many great stories in our daily lives. They are so easy to carry and a small piece really goes a long way. Tissues add to our positive stories of how we go through our basic need of health but also add to the story of our feeling being.

Scenario

 Ever went through some hardship and felt like no one is there to carry you through your tears? And ever been embarrassed after a clumsy encounter in public?

I bet all of us would answer yes to the questions above because we have gone through such situations and never noticed that tissues were present to make everything feel better.

Let us explore these scenarios in detail:

1.       When we feel at our worst when everything good seems farfetched and tears rolling like a flood of emotions. Tissues play comforter when we feel such emotions. When no one is around to wipe our tears away, tissues are available to close the gap. As you wipe your tears with a tissue, the softness of the wipe dries the pain. The sensitivity of use goes to the extent of sensitive emotions as well.

2.       Embarrassment is a feeling that can last a life time, it can play in your flashbacks and revert you to the moment of embarrassment. Being in public comes with a lot of commotions and stress. You will juggle a lot of things and your attention will quickly move from one area of focus to another. In the midst of all this, a lot of accidents can happen. You could nose bleed, you could spill something on yourself or anything that will let you misrepresent yourself. In such instances, you would want something to do to take the shame of the accident away, and tissues come in handy. The fact that you have a tissue means you are well put together and using it to dismantle the accident will give a solution to a problem and saving you the embarrassment.

3.       Tissues also come as sympathetic acts. I mean if someone is going through the worst and whether they are crying or having a cold or even had an accident, sometimes we don’t know what to say to make them feel better. Giving them a tissue would really make their worst feel better. I mean kindness has never hurt anyone and giving someone a tissue to assist shows a sign of sympathy in an act of no words. You could be lighting up someone’s day with just offering a tissue.

Closure

Tissues have taken the position of just being a physical item to use for physical use, with the emotions we go through the use of tissues have been therapeutic to take care of the experience of emotions. Tissues are becoming accessories of comfort and the little that you have in your bag or the pocket can make you or someone else feel better. You never know what will happen so it is helpful just carrying a tissue so that its effect becomes more than its purpose, let it become more than its physical use, let it heal brokenness and light up someone’s day.
