communication is the root of every problem.
let's get that straight.
the word communicate simply means to share and understand each other's thoughts and feelings.
without communication, the world is nothing. in business, colleagues must communicate amongst each other in order to complete tasks according to job criteria. in sports, communication is essential for a successful team. hell. there's even communication in sex. my point is, communication promotes connectivity and empathy. it's an art. we create art with our words. in a sense, speech can be a masterpiece.
an area where communication is key is relationships. it's the root. communication is like glue. if two people apply this glue, they are resisting separation. communication binds. well, at least effective communication does. effective communication exists when two people listen to gain the full meaning of what's being said and to make the other person feel heard and understood.
hmm, understanding. let's rewind. to communicate means to share and understand each others thoughts or feelings. in order to understand someone, you have to listen. beneath a good communicator is a good listener. the reason most relationships fail is because of lack of communication. i mean.. how else do you expect your partner to know where your heart is? why leave him/her confused? talk. speak. confide. lack of communication leaves confusion.
one day i received a phone call from a friend who at a time was struggling in his relationship. he wasn't sure if his partner's heart was in the relationship anymore.
the first thing i asked him was, "has she expressed how she felt about the relationship?" he said no.
there was pure silence through the phone. exactly.
speech without substance is trash. if the communication we share holds no value, our mouths shouldn't be opened. shut up.
i want to feel vibrations when you speak. your words should be able to provide my soul with the fruit it needs. feed me with your voice tones. i'll listen as long as your fruit isn't rotten.
they say communication is a two-way street. well, how can two survive if there isn't a sense of direction?
