When was the last time you spoke to someone? You might be wondering what kind of a question is this but I am serious about the question. Speaking is about having a conversation that is two-way and engaging, that is meaningful and heartfelt, that is reflective and forward looking. How often do we have a conversation of such a kind? A conversation that moves you to the core of your being as it inspires the other to act on it. A conversation that opens new doors while getting you closure on the ghosts you face. Really, how often o we have conversations of such a kind?
I said speak because most of us usually talk and talk without listening. We have so much to say that we hardly have time to listen to others. That fuels their reluctance to share any further and we reach a state where we speak without listening.
But one day, a day when you least expect, someone will come along, asking you to listen, waiting to be heard. Someone will move you to empathize without forcing you, inspire you to reach out and help without pushing you to work. And when that day comes, I urge you to just be present, listen in and speak from your heart and you will find a special connection. Then you will find the strength and the grace to speak!
