Sex is a meeting place. It is a space where we come together to share all that we are. It is the space we create when our senses connect with the needs and values that make us human.
Sex expresses who we are—our relationship with ourselves and with our bodies. It’s deeply connected to personal freedom and to how we relate to intimacy.
In sex, we’re not simply seeking bodily pleasure—because the body cannot truly enjoy if the soul is disconnected or blocked. Whatever is felt on the level of sensation will be fleeting and perceived by the mind as something of little significance.
In sex, we invest our needs. We express the need to be accepted, to be cared for, to be touched, to feel important, to be chosen and singled out. To be seen. To communicate.
Through erotic communication, we express our uniqueness—the things that are only ours. Our need to be desired, for the parts and textures of our body to be appreciated, to awaken in the other a longing to come closer, to become tender.
We create space for the ways that bring us satisfaction—ways that give us images of ourselves. We share what we fear, what brings us shame, and all the things we keep private. We stand vulnerable and bare, and we meet one another to create something beautiful for both—through that sharing. We shape our erotic, which is to say our human, identity.
In sex, we ask to connect with everything that makes us feel human.
When these needs are met, we feel that we are enjoying. We feel that what happened matters, that it fills us with meaning, and that it’s enough to be what it is—without needing to become something else.
We are there. We are ourselves.
