I must do these things in order to communicate:Become aware of you (discover you).
Make you aware of me (uncover myself).
Be ready to change during our conversation,
and be willing to reveal my changes to you.
For communication to have meaning it must have a life.
It must transcend "you and me" and become "us".
If I truly communicate, I see in you a life that is not me and partake of it.
And you see and partake of me.
In a small way we then grow out of our old selves and become something new.
To have this kind of sharing I cannot enter a conversation clutching myself.
I must enter it with loose boundaries.
I must give myself to the relationship,and be willing to be what grows out of it.

The last time I blogged, was in 2003. I never quite published those. Not that I'm ashamed of it, but more like, I'd like to put it behind me. Why start blogging again? No idea... Seeing lots of people blogging, my friends, cousins and sibling, so thought I'd just give it another shot. So here I am. I'm on the computer most of the time anyway, so might as well.
And so the story begins...
