Snuggling strangers

The fragment of my dream that I can remember gives me hope that maybe it's possible to put down our barriers, our wariness, our hurt, and just get on with being loving and connected. I'm looking forwards to the next few days and intend to as much as I can snuggle strangers as well as those I already love. Sometimes getting really really close with those we already know well can be hard – because there's the ongoing relationship there is already baggage, expectations, unresolved stuff. When we feel like that it can be hard to be genuine in our hugs unless we just lay the stuff aside and start again with the total loving. I have plans to hang out with a much loved friend as well as some quality time with my girly scheduled, and top of the agenda is to just be together, open heartedly.

And as for expressing affection with those we don't yet know – convention dictates that such a thing would be weird. Having woken reminded that my aim is to love love and love, I shall try not to let convention get in the way of that.
