Tăcerea e de aur, dar Comunicarea e de platină.

"As far as playing jazz, no other art form, other than conversation, can give the satisfaction of spontaneous interaction."      Stan Getz

Ultimul obiectiv al comunicarii este utilizarea limbajului omenesc. Principala caracteristica a  comunicarii este respectul fata de ceilalti oameni, si este o consecinta a respectului de sine. "Oamenii au inventat respectul ca sa ascunda locul gol, unde ar trebui sa fie iubirea." zice Lev Tolstoi . Dar daca iubirea fata de oameni lipseste, macar respectul fata de tine insuti sa te determine sa comunici, mai ales cand esti rugat sa faci acest lucru.

It doesn't matter what I say 

You never listen anyway 

Just don't know what you're looking for.

Imagination's all I have
But ever then you say it's bad
Just can't see why we disagree.

Casual conversations how they bore me
They go on and on endlessly
But no matter what I say
You ignore me anyway
I might as well talk in my sleep
I could weep.

 You try to make me feel so small
Until there's nothing left at all
Why go on? Just hoping that we'll get along.

There's no communication left between us
But is it me or you who's to blame?
There's nothing I can do, yes you're fading out of view
Don't know if I feel joy or pain
It's such a shame.

And now it seems it's all been said
If you must leave then go ahead
Should feel sad
But I really believe that I'm glad
I really believe that I'm glad
I really believe that I'm glad!

"Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood."  William Shakespeare

"Do you sometimes feel that you and another person talk at each other versus with each other? If this is happening, you and that person are probably not feeling heard or understood by the other, defensiveness rises, problems aren’t getting resolved and anger or resentment begins to fester. Problems in a relationship are rarely about the actual issue, they are more about how you and the other person communicate about the issues. If you are finding yourself struggling with communication issues in any personal or work relationship, assistance is only a call away. Your Employee Assistance Program offers no cost and confidential counseling for communication difficulties."
