Jeremiah talks about one of the basic building blocks of our relationships with God and others. The hypothesis is that in a healthy relationship, all wants and needs are discussed directly. The experiment is to communicate your interests and listen for the interests of the others.
Wow! Rich and deep my friend. And a healing joy.
I would add that as we change, we should continue to talk frankly about the relationship we share. We can keep things fresh, honest, alive.
