Sharing your life journey

In a book that I am reading it was suggested that you share your life journey (which some would describe as spiritual journey, but I think they are the same) with someone you can trust. Yesterday I called a friend, J, who lives in another state. I called to thank her for flower seeds that she had given me. But within five minutes we were deep in a discussion about our lives, what we need to work on and what we are learning. I am so grateful to have her in my life.
