every so often you have a moment when you lay yourself bare to another person. not thru the act of actually being physically naked, but thru sharing something so deeply personal of yourself. you give of your deepest thoughts and emotions...and all you want from them is to listen. perhaps give you some response, but not any validation. you are looking for them to see this piece of you, to know you better than they had before that moment. to be more aware of the you that is under the shell that hides and protects you from the world. perhaps to gain more respect for your ability to be honest of your feelings & willingness to share them.
