Close your eyes and think of your first kiss. How your heart raced, yet time stood still. Five bucks says you can still tell me who gave you that kiss. What is it about a kiss? Science tells us that kissing can reduce tension, reassure us and create social bonds...but this can't be what has inspired artists and lovers for centuries. Science is certainly not what inspires me to document the act so thoroughly that my peers tease me. Kissing is the very first way that we belong to one another. It speaks of the trust we've earned and our willingness to be vulnerable. It will be a part of our relationship our whole lives through...when we comfort, celebrate, apologize. Without a single word it will convey the content of our heart. Even when our faces grow unfamiliar with age, our beloved's kiss is recognizable because it has been written on our soul.
And so, to close this year I present some of my favorite kisses of 2009. I hope the new year blesses you all with health, prosperity and of course...kisses!
