sanctuary

True love, above all, is a place of safety. It is the safe place to share our tender feelings, a place to reveal our innermost thoughts, our hopes and passions, and our wildest dreams. It is a sanctuary in which we can reveal what is deepest in our soul. Love is that place where we can honestly and always be exactly who we really are. It is that very safety that allows us to develop an exquisite closeness to others, for only in allowing each other that safe place, do we grant each other the freedom to be real. And only when we reveal our true selves can we be honestly and truly loved.
