Significado
To share one's deepest feelings.
Contexto cultural
Opening the heart is often accompanied by 'haykakan surj' (Armenian coffee). It is a ritual of friendship. In the diaspora, this phrase is used to maintain emotional bonds with the homeland and family across distances. In the capital, younger people use this idiom to describe 'mental health' talks, which are becoming more common. In villages, opening the heart is a sign of deep hospitality (hyurasirutyun). A guest who opens their heart is treated like family.
