Reply #19: I used to wonder

[sweetheart]

about such things... and then i discovered meditation, that i am
pure consciousness, and that the body is a wart. ;-)

As you get older, your sexuality will be less and less an important
definition in your life, as indeed, it is youth culture that pushes
the need for such definitions, by its hormonal drives to reproduce.

Frankly, i could care less about sex these days. The question is,
"Do you give good love." In that sense, only someone who is totally
and profoundly awake within themselves is so capable.

I respect your awakening, and your sharing of it. The well is
infintely deep. If you keep asking yourself "What is it i really want."

deeper and deeper, there is a point where the body becomes an
ephemeral tool in the satisfaction of a deeper soul. In this
regard, i celibrate all steps of awakening by all people, as you
are a reflection of us all, and if Bill Clinton had asked himself
such questions long ago, and foregone his craving for lewinsky soup
for perhaps pea soup, bush would never have existed, and we'd be
in Al gore's second term right now, talking about our stock
dividends. :-)
