hello my friends!! TGIF!! i was chatting with a friend the other day-or texting rather, and we realized that what we were trying to say had gotten lost in translation!! ever had that happen?? and it wasn't the first time or the first friend really that had happened with, where we were texting along and completely misunderstood what the other person was saying or trying to say. i think our communication skills are sadlly lacking these days. texting is fun...absolutely!! i'll be the first to say that i am addicted!! i'd rather text then talk LOL. but no matter what the form of communication it is up to us to be heard and understood...
the mind is a funny thing. its the place from which everything else eminates yet no one else can access anyone elses. which means we've got to communicate. with animals we only use the most straight forward language. words like, "sit", "stay", "no". but between one another things quickly get complicated. what we say is not always what we mean. and at times we have to fight through mixed messages or start all over again. but no matter how hard it is and now often we feel misunderstood, it is our responsibility to keep fighting for clarity. because in the end we teach people how to treat us, which means the responsibilty to communicate lies not on the shoulders of others but ourselves.

until next time...safe journey.
