Sex or Making Love? The Difference that Changes Everything

There is a profound difference between having sex and making love, even though, on the surface, the two may look identical. The same bodies may be involved. The same gestures. The same movements. And yet, the inner experience can be worlds apart.

Sex can be an act of release. Making love is an act of presence. Sex can happen without connection. Making love cannot. Sex may satisfy a physical urge. Making love transforms the people involved.
