Being vulnerable doesn’t have to be threatening. Just have the courage to be sincere, open and honest. This opens the door to deeper communication all around. It creates self-empowerment and the kind of connections with others we all want in life. Speaking from the heart frees us from the secrets that burden us. These secrets are what make us sick or fearful. Speaking truth helps you get clarity on your real heart directives.
– Sara Paddison

I think that communication is probably the single more important basis to a relationship… and then more time that you spend getting to know someone, and share of yourself, and listen to what they have to say, then the more two people can grow closer. Just spending time talking… even if it isn’t deep… daily, makes a world of difference. I know, for me, it creates a level of trust that I desire. And it makes me feel safer with sharing those harder things. Holding all that crap in, locked inside my head, all alone, is a lot of pressure, for me. It’s healthy to have a way to release it. There are very few people that I trust, and even less that I let in… but, those that I do invite inside, I trust with my life.
