Description

I recently refreshed and enhanced the content of my 2016 book titled “Loving Softly”.  That book focuses on how someone who wishes to live a life of deep connection with significant others might relate to those others as a lover.  I refer to such a lifestyle preference as Living Softly.

Expressing one’s love is a facet of living in relationship, which is the purview of my Two Open Doors perspective on how relationship works.  In turn, relationship is a facet of a broader life that’s focused on community and the pursuit of meaning.  Two Open Doors is thus a part of Living Softly.

I recently came across a piece of reflective thought that beautifully captures the Loving Softly “love-style”.  We’ll savor that, in this episode.
