Making Love Is Always Within Us

Eros teaches us that the natural state of the body is anything but mysterious—that the very sensation we are looking for when making love
is always within us. It’s the sensation of desire met, feeling deeply gratified.

We aim for gratification, not satisfaction. Being satisfied means we’re full and don’t need more while the feeling of gratification is conferred when we’re both having and wanting simultaneously.

There is a gap between 
the two—room for growth and becoming—and when we cohabitate with desire, when we are in a clear, unimpeded, responsive relationship with our desire, that dynamic tension becomes our dwelling.
