Intimacy is the gift that bonds us to one another. We understand our likenesses and can acknowledge our differences in this process of sharing ourselves.

We can see how similar our fears and our hurts are, and in seeing we gain strength.

Becoming intimate with someone else, unites us, enlarges our capacity to nurture the people in our lives. Our emotional growth is proportionate to our attempts at intimacy.

Too often we hold back from telling others who we really are. Fearing that they'll think less of us if they know the person we hide within. Only the experience of self revelation can assume us that others won't think less of us.

Our unity with another is possible only if we share the person who lives within.

And to this I quote Germaine Greer:

“Every time a man unburdens his heart to a stranger he reaffirms the love that unites humanity."
