You may feel both loved and loving today while in the presence of friends and family you care deeply for. Though it is likely that your relationships with these individuals are already quite close, you may entertain thoughts of attaining an even more intense level of closeness. Warmth and tenderness may abound in your bonds, leaving you wondering how best to show your loved ones that you want to take your relationships to the next stage today. You will likely need to take the first step by permitting the people important to you to see parts of yourself that you have kept in the shadows of your soul because you were afraid to appear flawed.

When we wish to develop a deeper bond with someone we care about, it is absolutely vital that we allow them to see into the lowest reaches of our hearts. We can only create an imperfect partnership in stilted interpersonal conditions because we are limited by our unwillingness to appear vulnerable in front of others. Yet those individuals who truly love and respect us will regard our weaknesses as simply another element of our diverse personalities instead of judging us as lacking in strength. If we can bring ourselves to take this first and most daunting step without knowing how our loved ones will respond, we will nearly always discover that they receive our openness with warmth and tenderness. You will feel the weight of others affection for you today when you allow family and friends to see into your soul.
