i've been reading this book, called "sex god" and i thought that i would post this part, because it's something so true, but so often overlooked:
"to pursue being naked, you have to believe that this person is worth getting to know for the rest of your lives. being naked is peeling back the layers, conversation after conversation, experience after experience, year after year. it's rooted in the belief that the soul has infinite depth and you'll never get to the bottom of it.
our understanding of what it means to be naked reflects what we believe about the human soul. is it infinite? or can you get to the end of a person?
the failure to understand the infinite depth of the human soul is often why people who are married have affairs. they stop exploring the person they married. they find somebody who appears more interesting."
this changes the meaning of "naked" in a way that i've never really thought about before. i hope that i can be honest and "naked" with people.
i also hope that i never stop exploring the infinite depth of my future husband's soul.
just some thoughts on this dreary wednesday,
evz
