'Sharing ourselves' means to share what we are experiencing. I share my reaction, my thought, my feeling, my association, my memory, my hunch. I share my agreement, my disagreement, my happiness, my sadness, my surprise, my disappointment, my irritation, my hope, my jealousy, my reservation, my fear, my whatever. I share this not because I am right or wrong, not to act on it, not to try to convince or achieve a hidden agenda, but because this is my perspective, my gift, my cross. I share this because it is me. My responsibility is to share myself, my process, and not try to control outcome. Outcome will happen. I didn't come to a place of peace that moved me to share myself. It's the other way around. When I share myself I come to a place of peace, which does encourage me to do more sharing of myself. Many times I don't do this kind of sharing of myself, but I have come to value it as the way to go. When I do share myself it is satisfying and good things seem to happen.
