On Communication and Relationships
November 22, 2007What does it take to be a good communicator?
Or rather 'What does it take to have a good communication?'
Is it just being good in relaying your point of view to the other? Many people, I believe, are good at this part. They can 'communicate well' or at least speak out their thoughts and feelings to another person very fluently and effectively. If one can do so like this, does this make a person a good communicator? Isn't this a bit one sided?
There is one essential part in communication, I do believe, that is always missing, a part that has been referred to by men and women of wisdom as an art! An essential part in communication, that because of this or because of the lack of this has become the downfall of many relationships! For without this true communication can never be. Thus relationships will hardly prosper.
It is the art known as Listening. It is an art that once mastered to the highest level and become a part of a relationship, two people need only to look eye to eye and within the silence, a message can be relayed and understood.
Perhaps, this has been the downfall of our relationship too.
