Communication matters.

Understanding how to address those around us and properly present ourselves, thoughts, ideas, arguments, and requests is imperative to building healthy relationships. One of the main parts of communication, is learning to listen. Most of us wait until the other person is done speaking just so we can respond. When a loved one tells us of their pain, we tell them how we hurt too.

Sometimes relating a situation to one of your own is supportive; most often, it’s just a way to shift the topic back to us. Let’s grow together. Let’s talk.
