An Intimate Connection
Intimacy: the Oxford Dictionary is pretty sketchy in its description of the word.
It says…
1) “Close familiarity or friendship.”
2) “An intimate act or remark”.
A pretty broad description using just words.
But that’s not surprising because intimacy is one of those things that transcend a definitive description. Intimacy is an intangible. Most of us know it when we see or experience it no matter if we can actually put it into words. It’s more of a feeling that warms us inside and those kinds of things can be hard to describe because they are experienced on such a personal level.
