More Romance, Less Souless Sex

 

 

We live in a world that worships sexual chemistry but downplays  fundamental human  nature and  the role of curiosity.

Everyone wants that spark; few are willing to tend and sustain the  essential fire. But real soul to soul connection isn’t built on urgent intensity alone, it’s built on seeking.

Learning what readies the other  for a week's chaotic adventure. Learning what wounds them and what heals them. Learning how to show up in ways that make their world a little easier to live in.Learning what else makes the other  give an enchanted look after learning about their favourite book.

Learning the names the other holds dear. Discovering that  their words share even more than  their dictionary meaning. Learning that they would  be heroic,even if it cost them their popularity. Learning more somehow by cutting out the noise to discover their true signal.

 

 Rejoicing with them when you help them discover the truth. Learning the nature of their looks when you exchange smiles. Experiencing your first disconnect with the other. Watching pain flash across their face when confronting the ugliness of life's journey. Discovery of the other motivates self -discovery. Learning their hiding  mode and defensiveness when confronting fear or shame.

 

 Life is recognising the messiness of human nature and dealing with it with love.
