Learning
Intimacy is about two (or more) coming together in unity. Not just unity for the sake of unity, but togetherness that changes each individual, allowing them each to be more together than they could ever be apart.
Every one of us is so different. Shaped by different experiences, passionate about different things, knowledgeable about diverse subjects. We’re each a ray of light falling on the earth from different angles. The more we learn about one another, the more fully we can view the world.
Ask questions. Learn why. Let a little more light into your perspective.
Learning is a great way to experience intimacy because intimacy is about sharing and growth. We are best equipped to experience this during the process of learning. This is why couples take cooking classes or dance lessons. Learning together is an exercise in intimacy.
