There is a reason that you feel a strong desire for a physical connection with others Dear One, aside from just a longing for sexual gratification — be it through a nudge or a tickle, a handshake or a hug, a kiss, a smack, an intimate embrace, or, of course, through sex.

Do you want to know why that is Dear One?

It is because you all have source within you.  You all have a spark of the divine that exists within your physical bodies, and aside from your connection to it through your own heart, the next closest source of divine energy that is available to you at all times, is each other.
