What is authenticity ... really?
"I thought authenticity was being a live wire, being raw, and unfiltered. But that's not authenticity. Authenticity is bringing through the truth without exaggerating it and without minimizing it."

If you listen to the whisper on your shoulder, you are re-aligning with your integrity. You are acting on your integrity now by having hard conversations. We often think authenticity is being a live wire, being raw and unfiltered. But that's not authenticity. Authenticity is bringing through the truth without exaggerating it and without minimizing it. When you are looking for a real relationship that is authentic — one of integrity, deeply connected (not just a shallow one-night stand) — then having the herpes talk with potential partners becomes a filter for finding potential partners who are also authentic. If they're a no to herpes as a concept (and they're willing to reject you over it) then you probably weren't going to get into a deep relationship with them anyway.
