Frivolous
Surely taking a sexuality journey is a frivolous extravagance. That worries me. I’m not one for thinking we’re going to heal the world until all beings are enlightened, astonishing though that would be. Initially, it is a personal voyage, so why does this seeking for better matter? When I ask myself what the common problems of relationship or intimacy are - not knowing what to want yet knowing there’s something more, the boredom of habitual unrewarding sex, mismatched desire, lack of relational honesty, intimacy starvation - there’s a relevance and immediacy of why it matters a great deal. In everyday kindness, existence and connection, there’s a compassionate love underpinning the clumsiness.
