Remember all those times you were upset or angry, but kept
silent? Those times when you should have articulated your thoughts, but chose
not to. Either because you thought the other person should know. Or because you
didn’t want to disturb the fragile peace such as there was.
Remember all those times you yelled at each other. Clinging
on to your own point of view, refusing to listen to the other. Angry because the
other person just wouldn’t budge.
Wouldn’t things have been much easier if you had just spoken?
And listened? Sometimes all you need is space to share.

Natasha - What wisdom! Sometimes people do just need to open up and really listen to each other. I think that so often we're really not as far apart as it seems...
So true! We all need to learn to listen more and say less!!
