I think it is inevitable that our identity traits sometimes impede and modify a "direct and natural" relationship. If we can stop and realize this impediment and restore ourselves to accessing what is deeply human within both of us, we can keep moving forward in understanding. I think the big question might be "How do we enhance a direct and natural relationship?" For me, it has helped so much to get to know people from other countries and to have traveled. I think this also comes with being open to coaching from other people and a commitment to practice it. And we have to speak the truth, as you have done by opening up this conversation here.
