I think thoughts of love. I speak words of love. I demonstrate unconditional love for my love partner in all that I do. Openness means being willing to communicate my deepest feelings. There can be no intimacy without conversation.
Truthful communication moves love partners and creates a condition of unity, love and satisfaction.
The act of withholding the truth is always potentially a lie. The energy required for the self-discipline of honesty is far less than the energy required for withholding. My love partner and I are dedicated to the truth and live in the open, and through the exercise of our courage to live in the open, we become free from fear. Fear cannot exist whenever insight is valued above feeling frightened. I listen when my lover shares without making judgment.
