Intimacy: How would you define it?

“Intimacy is not something that just happens between two people; it is a way of being alive.

At every moment, we are choosing either to reveal ourselves or to protect ourselves, to value ourselves or to diminish ourselves, to tell the truth or to hide. To dive into life or to avoid it.

Intimacy is making the choice to be connected to, rather than isolated from, our deepest truth at that moment.”
