This is amazing, I just realized that I’ve been practicing attentive listening and conversation layering without even knowing that’s what I was doing. I’ll definitely try weaving in the psychoanalytic connections too.

Beyond just having deeper conversations, I think what you said really resonates: it’s about connecting with someone who makes you feel worthy enough to share that part of their life with you. That, to me, shows the true power of wonderful conversations.

Thanks for bringing this to light and reminding us of the magic in conversation.

I was already thinking people might not resonates with what I had said. But I'm glad you do. The truth is, Psychoanalytic connections is the heart of all “beyond surface level conversations”. Sometimes people might say, you too dey read meaning to things, but me I understand that that' all I'm doing is that I'm trying to understand the other person on a more deeper level. But in a world where everyone is average, don't you think we should strive to become exceptional beings.

Oh, Fareed, this is beautiful! I’ve always done this without even knowing this is what I do. But, sometimes, when I try to bring up a similar story, I realize I mostly steal the spotlight. I’m going to practice all you’ve said.
