Kissing Explained

: Kissing Explained

Eyes are known to be the windows to our soul. Lips, then, are
the servants of our consciousness. Our lips respond to happy
thoughts by smiling, they express our innermost emotions with
words of love and hope, and are able to convey what no words

Chambers 20th Century Edition), it would describe kissing as
“to caress or salute with the lips”. Dictionaries know nothing
about kissing!

It would be far better to look to the great poets and
romantics of ourtime. Shakespeare calls it a “seal of our
love” while the witty Coleridge describes kissing as “nectar
breathing”.

Kissing is the first physical expression of serious attraction

stare into each other’s eyes deeply, but their relationship
cannot go any further until they kiss.

I am not referring to those quick pecks on the cheek or even
those cheeky under-the-mistletoe affairs, but the kind where
