the single biggest problem in communication is the •{illusion}• that it has taken place...George Bernard Shaw ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Listen...Talk...Process...Move Forward •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• One of the most important, yet sometimes under appreciated tools is the power of •{Communication}•. As we are forever Growing, Shifting, Learning, and Evolving you'll face many situations that require just that, Communication. Communication is not just talking, but it's also listening, it's also processing. As super simple as it sounds, you actually find that it's something that people sometimes rarely do effectively. We may let our emotions run wild, our feeling navigate us to the point of no return. We may hold so tightly to what we believe our •{Truth}• to be that we refuse to see things in any other way. We don't "actually" want to communicate, we just want to be heard. •••••••••••• People have gone to War, Countries have gone to War over this very thing. It can be very "Ego" driven, and at the end of the day I've noticed situations don't usually have to be as "extreme" as we make them out to be. Not as "serious" as we portray them. ••••••••••••••• Sometimes, most times, situations can be resolved if both parties remain •{Open}•. Open to listening, Open to communicating, Open to the idea that no one has to be right, and no one had to be wrong. It's perfectly normal to disagree, but there is a way to do it respectfully, and effectively. Don't text, Call, Meet face-to-face, be vulnerable, forgive, TRULY Let Go, and Move Forward. •••••••••••• It doesn't mean that you saw eye to eye, it doesn't mean you remain friends, lovers, even associates. But put things in perspective and realize that there is no need to burn the whole house down, when you're only going to left standing there choking on the smoke. ••••••••••••••• I've truly learned the value in Packing •{Light}•, Always remaining open to Communicate no matter the circumstances, and not harboring negative energy! •••••••••••••• Be Light. Give Light. Pack Light. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #PositiveLoveEnergy #Communicate #RemainOpen (at Riad Rêve d'Or - Marrakech)
