"Compassionate Communication"

"Communication, is it a one way street?"

Is the way we communicate, a mirror of our personality?
As a part time writer, and full time observer, I have always been aware of how people communicate.

One's age group, education, or financial status, has no bearing on the quality of how we communicate with each other, or our ability to have that give and take while conversing. Those who are self absorbed will carry on a conversation about themselves, without asking about the person with whom they speak.

Is this the way of the future? Is caring or empathy a thing of the past?
Experiencing several of these conversations, made me feel quite sad. Being very one sided, has lead me to believe that there is a need for an education in communicating.

In this complex world, the way we speak to one another should be of utmost importance. It may determine how we lead our lives, and is a reflection of us, and the Image we project.

"A New Year, A New Beginning"

Wishing all of you a very Happy and Healthy New Year.

As we begin this new year, we have a clean slate to assess the past and continue on with our life's journey. We now have the opportunity to create a new Image as we evolve.

How we progress in our journey, is to some extent, in our own hands.
Looking at that which has transpired in the past, we have the ability to make changes.

How you wish to proceed is up to you. Being truthful with yourself is not easy, but once you recognize your weaknesses and strengths, you can make better choices.

Learning about yourself is the first step to creating the life you want and becoming a better person.

Breaking the old patterns can help us to "Be the Best We Can Be".
