Windows and walls.

So what's more important, the window or the wall? Walls are barriers that protect, divide and support. Windows are openings in the wall that let light in and sometimes reveal the mystery behind the wall. But, even at that, some windows are glazed with a transparent or translucent material that lets us see a little of what's inside but not allow us to reach in and touch it.

So it is when we bring someone into our lives with whom we can become transparent, I mean totally transparent. There are days when we might just be translucent or even opaque, but at least there is a window and not a wall. Maybe we have some glitter around our window, but nevertheless it is still a window. Maybe we put a wire mesh over our window, but it is still a window.

How big is the window in your wall? What do others see when they look inside? Do you let them even see inside? Think about it.
