Communication is not easy

 I think we might have grew up with the misunderstanding that if we can talk that means we can communicate

but the more i grow up and observe other people and the way they talk, i realize there's an art to communication which can make a lot of situations or relationships much much better.

I think i am a direct person, and i have this friend who is also a direct and quite orderly person, which i believe is quite similar to my personality. Through him i realized that, he is so good at communicating in a sense that he can give out his point and be firm with it, but in the most neutral way ever, that everyone easily accept or acknowledge his opinion eventho we are at a disagreement. So it just ends up always feeling like a normal good and healthy conversation, no matter what.

Its like, ohh that's how u think, that's different from me, but okay, noted. Ya know what i mean ?

This made me realize that i can be a lot more delicate and graceful with the words and sentences i choose to share, especially when it come to giving opinions. But i'm learning, slowly, plus i've been reading books on communication lately, sooooo, i'm bound to pick up some of those skill eventually. i hope. HAHA

With this self-awareness, i hope i can consistently and consciously work to communicate better.

I said communicate, not talk, not speak, but COMMUNICATE.
