UNDERSTANDING
Understanding is a work in progress.
In other words, one needs to take a
lot of time to understand - sometimes
to understand just one other person -
like in marriage. It takes time. It takes
making time for finding out how the
other person thinks, remembers,
saying things like, “I was thinking
about something you said the other
day. Do I have it right when you
said….” It takes great questions:
“What’s it like to have a baby?”
“What’s it like to feel you're in prison?”
“What’s it like to feel misunderstood?”
