Power of Conversation

Does anyone ever get tired of all the gidgets, gadgets, and convenient modes of communications?  
No?  Just me?

For whatever reason today I don't like it.  I don't want to call, text, email, or facebook my way through my friends/fam.  Sometimes there is absolutely no replacement for face-to-face contact.  The conversation is better, the humor is more heart felt and better reciprocated, the feelings more genuine.

Nope, just not today.


"We need to ask more questions and listen more deeply. 

We need to seek first to understand, rather than to be understood. 
We need to be the sparks for challenging, inspiring, engaging talk, willing to ask the hard and important questions and to provide honest and authentic answers.
We need to be comfortable with the messy, wonderful process of truly engaging with each other around what is important to us."
