The gift of intimacy
ntimacy is what we crave and it’s also what we fear. Being truly seen by another can facilitate a beautiful, heart-opening experience that has the power to be deeply healing, spiritual and joy-filled. In contrast it can be uncomfortable and confronting. When I met my love 20 years ago, I vividly recall my discomfort when he looked me in the eyes with a heart-felt love. I could not meet his soulful gaze. It had me feeling anxious and edgy. I was not conscious back then that I was carrying deeply rooted beliefs of not feeling worthy of love.
