This face to face could be named sliding relationships. Imagine ice cubes in a jar each one touching and a communication and exchange taking place where sides touch, this is face to face or interface.
As the cubes melt, and this case filled with water or maybe just placed in the jar the interface's begin to change the relationship to all surfaces. Suppose in this analogy this is communication exchange whether electronic or human.
In any case the nature of the exchange differs from the original. In human relationships if we wish or have been indoctrinated that this exchange must remain as near as possible constant or sustained with an allowance of a few variables. The tie or bond maybe business, religion, human love, politics, dependency, safety, security and sheer habit producing an easy comfortability and very little challenge or indeed questioning, in fact sometimes desperately maintaining the shape, the 'cube - iness'.
Sometimes an event can shatter or prize apart such relationships; illness, cheating, self inquiry and seeing the lack of creativity and bored with the daily chores of Life.
However one thing is for sure the melting and dissolving will carry on and inevitably the cube, the person dissolves in the ocean of Being and passes into clear water.
The Self Inquiry maybe aware of the pure clear water of which the cube arose from, the cube realizes it is formed from the water and this is its true essence, its source. It therefore during its cube life relaxes and is easy with its interfaces and flows with the melting process and will eventually become one with the Source.
Perhaps by sticking to one's original shape is confining or imprisoning and is not accepting the loss that occurs in Life by doing so and missing the challenge of expansion and maybe more a sense of freedom and until Life passes one by and the opportunities that were outside interfacing in a rigid manner.
