Life Is Also A Mixture

I Don't Need A "reason" To Be Happy. I Don't Have To Consult The Future To Know How Happy I Feel Now.

It Is Enough That I Am Of Value To Somebody Today.

Sometimes When I Generalize, I Am Saying, 'let's Pretend I Am God,' And Of Course The Other Person Argues That Point Endlessly. But I Notice That If The Other Person Takes A Stand For Himself And States His Thoughts As His Thoughts, I Pay More Attention To What He Is Saying And Look Deeper In Myself.

Many Books On Communication Are Strong On Theory But Impractical On Application. Marshall Rosenberg's Instant Classic Is The Stand-out Exception. It Is Clear And Compelling In Its Logic And Flat-out Inspiring In Its Inviting Exposition Of Usable Techniques And Strategies. If This Book Is Read By Enough People, The World Will Transform.

For Communication To Have Meaning It Must Have A Life. It Must Transcend "you And Me" And Become "us." If I Truly Communicate, I See In You A Life That Is Not Me And Partake Of It. And You See And Partake Of Me. In A Small Way We Then Grow Out Of Our Old Selves And Become Something New. To Have This Kind Of Sharing I Cannot Enter Into A Conversation Clutching Myself. I Must Enter Into It With Loose Boundaries. I Must Give Myself To The Relationship, And Be Willing To Be What Grows Out Of It.
