I like you so much better when you're naked
Why do we like each other so much when we are naked? Is it something about stripping off all of those masks that we wear when we are with other people, or is it about putting on another one? I find myself, today of all days, thinking about the essential nature of human connection. I find, that I am often more intimate and more connected to those people that I am not naked with, and less intimate with the ones that I am. Maybe it's me... maybe the desire that I have to connect to other people is less about physical intimacy, and more about intellectual intimacy.
I find it difficult to really put into words all of the things that I am thinking about right now. Yet again, I am finding myself
at a bizarre crossroads where life is asking me what choices I want to make, and how they demonstrate the path that I am on...
But it is so hard for me not to compare. To compare my choices with others, to think that for some reason I am not far enough, good enough, or where I need to be. I know that yesterday I wrote about self-acceptance, something I am really keen to observe in my own life... but I guess my biggest question is: how to you continue to accept yourself when things don't go the way that you want? Or,when you feel like you have made all of these big, life determining decisions, and you don't know if they are right?
I guess that there really isn't an answer, but I know one thing, life is really all we have.. and it is too short to spend so much time obsessing about... So, instead of worrying why or how or whatever about men, relationships, and sex, instead, I choose to life in this moment... and really, I even like myself better when I am naked.....
