Everyone needs someone they can say ANYTHING to without the fear of rejection. BE that someone. Jamie The Very Worst Missionary
Are you that someone? Do you have that someone? If you aren't that someone, why? If you don't have that someone, why?
To BE that someone you have to be able to speak truth in love. You have to be willing to be a safe place. You have to be willing to listen without trying to fix, without passing judgement, and without condemning.
To HAVE that someone you have to be willing to hear truth, even when - or especially when - it stings. You have to be willing to invite someone into your life that you know won't back down from your crappy moods and defensiveness. You have to be willing to talk and be vulnerable.
We need safety in our lives and we need people who will stand up and be that safe place for us and we need to be that safe place for others.
