246. A quickie

Just a quick blog on my phone before I forget...


We connected today.

It didn't take long to hear her voice and immediately feel like we had been friends for years.  Being connected is more than checking out her rack...more than looking for the abs under his shirt...it's about sharing space, being you and knowing that you are accepted.  Not by them...but by you.

When we feel connected, we are feeling most at ease with who we are.  We feel under control, relaxed and whole.  We are enjoying friendly banter, we are sharing stories and emotions, thoughts and beliefs. We are spicing it up with inappropriate jokes and catching each others eyes long enough to linger in the moment.  Connection occurs when you feel most like you....and in that feeling of being you, being comfortable with sharing who you are with another.  Your stories, your fears, your values and thoughts.  This is what separates your friends from strangers.  With friends we are connected...we are accepted...the mask drops...I connect.  I let myself breathe in the moment of being with them.
