"We all come into this world with a need for connection and protection and with a need for freedom. And from the first moment on, we will be straddling these two needs -- what is me, and what is us? The common parlance today is, I need to first work on myself; I need to first feel good about me; solve me before I can be with somebody else, and I find that also a strange thought. You know who you are, you discover who you are in the presence of another. So this constant dance between me and you, between I and thou, is at the core of being human." Therapist Esther Perel shares more in this thought-provoking On Being interview.
