“The biggest communication problem is we do not listen to understand. We listen to reply.” Unknown

Be quick to listen and slow to speak...” James 1

An argument does not have to be destructive because we can deliberately choose to make it constructive. Why tear down when you can build up? When our friend or spouse disagrees with us, we can wisely listen to a point of view that may enhance our understanding and help us see things we may not have noticed. Seeing a new point of view can complement our own. It does not have to compete with it. Do not let the winds of disagreement ruffle the feathers of your pride, rather let it lift the wings of your relationship and help you soar above conflict.  Conversations Within” ts 7/21/2015
