I believe in the kind of connections that are made with the courage of vulnerability.

The baring of naked truths

and exposed souls

with no agenda.

The sharing

of what we each hold sacred,

yet at the same time long to let go of,

so that we can watch someone else hold it the same way,

protecting it,

and honoring it,

all the while seeing directly into us

unfalteringly

and unequivocally.
