We do not “know” how to converse

We do not “know” how to converse. We have to create it anew each time. We have to create it anew this time.

This means for one thing that we have to invest ourselves—giving all.

This means second that we have to invest ourselves in receiving the imperfectly communicated ideas and soul of the other, sweating out what they mean.

This means third that we have to invest ourselves in sweating out what we together might mean, be, and do.
