intimacy / no fear

there are various ways people "achieve" intimacy : rituals / not caring...(nothing to lose if you don't give) / co-dependence / mistaking sex for intimacy / true intimacy...OF COURSE  , only one of these actually works...the others will eventually all fall apart...make no mistake...what we do...what we achieve...social status...our abilities...all of these things can actually get in the way of true intimacy...intimacy is fearlessly disclosing your true identity to another...and if your identity is pathetic...then i understand why intimacy is avoided...point : you can only give what you have...so make sure what you have is...beautiful !!!
