Communion

When human beings connect with each other or with other natural and intelligent life forms like animals or trees for example, there is the possibility of a shared meaning. When being in a relation in which a shared meaning is emerging, this fundamentally qualifies the relation. Being in communion with another being affects the performance of presence and the negotiation of trust fundamentally.
