"I like it when the deeper you go with the character,
the more you see the layers start to peel away."
Edward Norton
Superficial exchanges do not interest me. I like deeper conversations embedded with integrity and respected boundaries. Body language is the first indicator showing if the words are supported by physical reactions. A tone of voice is an important element, but facial expression is highly resourceful.
As I listen to what is being shared, important facts are collected. I want to be able to feed them back in different wording. The person will feel seen and heard. By doing this, a deeper understanding is shared. It is a way of investing in each other, leading to a communication style that binds friends while honoring emotions.
Over the years, layers of emotion are buried, some deeper than others. Gently unfolding the fabric of experience allows light and air for new perception. It is within the creases that healing is most desired. Holding safe space allows disclosure without judgment or disgrace. It is within these boundaries that I find souls teaching me kindness and grace.
