Do you remember when you were utterly entranced by the blissful touch of your lover? Even by the thought of it?
What would it be like to enjoy that magical sensuality again? Every day?
When we consider the human body, we don't often think about how amazing our skin is. The skin is the largest and most sensitive organ we have. It is our boundary with the world, it where we experience the world. And we communicate with each other through contact, through touch, via the skin. From infancy onwards, long before we have language, we touch and feel and connect with the world around us through our skin.
These are not just dull biological facts!
Falling in love is all about that blissful touch
Think about what it's like when you first fall in love with someone. Not only do you think about your beloved and how wonderful they are all day. You also long with a sometimes truly painful yearning to be near them, to be close to them. To touch and be touched by them. The smallest, slightest contact, even just sleeve against sleeve, can send an almost electric shock right through you, making you feel faint.
And as for an embrace, where you wrap your arms around each other and lose yourselves completely in a deeply passionate kiss...
Where did it go?
