We talk to each other in words and phrases

I want to write something to you, I'm failing at letting you in a little bit. I have a frustration that I am currently dealing with, one that is somewhat of a plague it seems with humankind. This crazy, unimaginable ability of the human race that is yet tampered with in a positive way. An ability that would make feelings known, directions clearer, leadership more noticeable, and relationships all the more better.

Communication

Communication..to "commune" means to talk together with profound intensity or intimacy, an interchanging of thoughts or feelings as the ever convenient dictionary.com would have it. What in the world do we have if we do not have our opinions and convictions, and furthermore the ability to make them known. I am sad to say I am a not immune to the unfortunate ways of letting communication slip, but we all are guilty of this in some area or another.

We try to pack it away into the recesses of our minds if we have an issue with a friend. We try to overlook, and overlook, and overlook, until the issue cannot be overlooked anymore...and usually at that point the damage is done. We try to be leaders and sometimes we forget one of the most important pieces of information thus making chaos for all those who need the information the most. In marriages there are mishaps in communication that leads to arguments and blame.

It is an essential part of our human ability to make everything frustrating, dire, or important known. It is an item in our warehouse of peacemaking, and leadership training that are used not nearly enough. This is a struggle for me and many others I'm sure. We just have to learn to open our mouths and speak the truth in love.


All to God
