No Holds Barred Conversation


I saw this beautiful cloud formation on the way back from Hesston tonight. I met Marci and WenDee at Ruffino’s in Hesston for dinner. It was really good Italian.

Even better than the food was the conversation. It was far-ranging, but was meaningful. When we see each other in an environment where we can talk it’s like we’ve all been saving up tons of questions for each other. There’s never enough time to get them all asked or answered.

I’m really blessed to have people in my life that can delve right into real conversation. I’ve learned in the last couple of years that this isn’t something everyone feels comfortable with. And, I’ve learned that my direct manner of speaking, and the fact that I am very definitive, can be off-putting to some.

It was a real delight to visit with Marci and WenDee and not feel the need to hold back at all. Love that!.
