Relationship = a pound of salt

In 1996 on a mission trip in Zimbabwe...a local pastor said something that sounded funny...but struck me in depth of understanding.

The statement was this..."If people are really going to know one another, they need to do it over a pound of salt."

What was he saying?...It takes a long time, many, many, many.... meals together, for you to consume a pound of salt. Likewise, it takes a long time to build relationship, to get to know one another.

I think this is good to remember in reality, but especially in blogland!
