No need to tell me about your successes. You’ll bring them up naturally, without knowing it. So will I. Do tell me about your disasters; those are always helpful. The ruined places are where we learn about each other. Tell me where you went down in flames, where you laid or are still lying in ashes. Now this is a dangerous telling, so be a good editor of your stories. Do not lie. People can smell the stench of falsehoods. Instead choose the truths to expose, and allow them to be spoken in time, sand falling in an hour glass. Break the glass and the sand buries the listener. Just let them fall as they fall and try trusting a bit, then a little more.
