The bed is one of the most wonderful places on earth, especially when shared. I believe the time we spend in the bed with someone should be protected, safeguarded, cultivated, for it brings precious moments of intimacy and closeness between people.
The bed is an extraordinarily versatile apparatus: wild sex,
comforting rest, endless and insightful conversations… many things could take
place there. The bed is powerful: makes the physical distance disappear, somehow
also eliciting a mental proximity, opening the door to all sort of magic:
warmth, passion, feelings.
The bed makes “the connection” happen.
How about sleeping, like, literally sleeping together? Isn’t
it marvelous? Two unconscious bodies lying beside each other, all cozy, flying,
travelling to a parallel universe, maybe even dreaming together. Sometimes you briefly
come back to reality startled by those little kicks or muscle spasms the other
gives you. I like to think about them as warnings from your tranced sleeping
partner alerting you of something crucial, like he tripped on an unexpected step.
Even the unimportant little things are meaningful.
I could talk for hours about spooning. It is a tangible metaphor
of how two souls click, match, fall into place, of how they complement and how
they harmonize with each other. I could keep writing but I rather stop here. I would
prefer not to corrupt every person’s customized memories of what they have felt
when spooning with someone they love.
Protect the bed.
Cherish the bed.
Foster and cultivate those moments.
Do not ruin the powerful magic created in that place with your
phone.
I love it Gala, so true! ❤
