The Art of Communication

The Art of Communication
And we choose certain vocabulary which will not evoke a defense or an ego. We try to have conversations that could be prolonged. And we ask follow-up or even open-ended questions so people can give us descriptions. And instead of us assuming the right side, it could be the left side. So grab onto the tail and hold on for the ride. And it's a beautiful dance. There is an art of speech. If it's well-practiced, you become extremely well-versed and people see it as being clever in a craft. And if you can do it in two languages, my term and you, my friend, three languages, it only bears the mark of higher education. It shows structure, discipline and advanced cognitive skills. So if you're ever trying to relate to somebody, or show of solid first impression, you can't beat that. It really shows dedicated practice and dedication. And so it's a wonderful way to interact in the world. And so I've seen it as a gift.
