Conversations

Good morning family. We are mid-week already. Wow, these mornings come fast, sometimes to fast but thankful for rest, a renewed spirit and a brand new start. I think I drank my coffee to fast because I need another one already. Anyway. "I'm So Glad Trouble Don't Last Always" is what's on my mind and heart this morning. We sometimes engage in arguments that lead to frustration and discontentment but when we understand that some arguments are meant to make us stronger, bring us closer then we begin to move forward. It's in those times that we walk in resentment that we stop progressing. Conversation is a huge part of my every day life. Because of this I've learned to watch what I say, how I say it and when. Being mindful of my audience is also important. The flip side of this is being able to listen and accept feedback. There are so many people who miss the opportunity to learn because of their inability to listen and fully engage in productive conversations. I'm glad that I have reminders every day that it's not always about how I feel or what I need, it's really about the needs of others. I also realize that it is not important to have the last word, the importance comes from the words we use/say. Sometimes you just have to "shut it up", keep calm and move on. TeamConversation.
