How to use "Opening" in context?
Opening remarks
Opening our hearts and minds is the initial step of any journey. It's the ABCs of what we should do in life: Acknowledge, Behave, and Change. We open ourselves up in different ways, that depends on our disposition, what we're looking to gain and how we want to approach our life. There is no one right way to open up, everyone has their own preferences, and what works for one person might not be the same for another.
