 Does this resonate with you at all?
Check yourself when you are talking to others today... How much of the time are you focused completely on what the other person is saying? How much of your attention is focused on planning what you want to say when it is your turn to speak? We tend to spend more time formulating our replies than we do trying to honestly understand what the other person is saying. The National Week of Conversation starts in just two days! Are you you ready to talk? More importantly, are you ready to listen? What are your intentions? Let’s set our focus on listening to understand... Let us know what you learn! -The Purple Living Room Team

But as long as everybody is able to come with an open heart, then we can work things out. D polarization is one of the most important thing is that we can do as a nation.
