Meaning: expose all my strengths and weaknesses. Meaning.
Rewrite 1: show you my cash drawer
Rewrite 2: open my books to the public
Rewrite 3: publish my programming code
Rewrite 4: open my medical records
Comment1: Think of secrets you wouldn’t normally show others but that would be meaningful to show to get something in exchange.
Comment2: My thanks to Doug for pointing out an embarrassing spelling error in rewrite 2, which I have corrected.
