Do Not Withhold Yourself

“Do not withhold yourself from each other.
To withhold is to lie to yourself
and to each other.
Do not withhold your feelings
but share them openly and with compassion.
Do not withhold your forgiveness
but give it freely as a natural gift.
Do not withhold your delight
but dance and laugh and play with ease.
Do not withhold your body,
but give it often in the myriad ways of passion.”

-From The Couple’s Tao Te Ching
