This message reminds me that I can pay more attention to the people I care when they do something, their facial expression, their gesture, what they choose and the way they treat me. Verbal communication is one part of communication.

Frank

The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention…. A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.

 “See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able to touch souls.”

 “Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.”  Margaret Lee Runbeck

Sometimes, it is a blessing if you become voiceless. You could enjoy listening what people are trying to say. Without two-way communication, how can you do the meaning negotiation?  Share us your comments. Wish your voice be back soon.
