“When someone is hurt and
we hear ourselves saying
"I don't understand, why"
PAUSE
At the pause, ask "What am I missing here ?"
At the pause, stop judging, stop reacting,
get curious and believe their hurt state
At the pause, tap into their heart and mind.
Now see how this pause transforms the conversation.”
― Wordions

“She seems to always get it
To have become adept at empathy
Always giving excuses for people who’ve aggrieved her
To the point it’s hard for her to hit back when necessary
All because she assumes she ‘understands’
Then, one day . . .
She finally stands up for herself
At that moment, she revels in the natural instinct of self-preservation
She realises all this while the power she’s been withholding
In a transcendent moment of epiphany
It’s all beautiful ‘cause
Now, she can get back to empathy with understanding, rather, than without.”
― Ufuoma Apoki

“When we miss the meaning of a language, we miss the real essence and impact of communication. If we lose the real meaning of a language, we lose the real understanding of a language. Friendship is developed and nurtured through effective communication and that is the great tool that shapes friendship. A good communication, regardless of how short it might be is a great litmus paper that proves who a true friend or false friend is. A good communication does not only trigger the best bond but it also uncovers things in the heart that are hidden from the eyes. Without an effective communication, real friendship and real love between two great people is just like two great mountains with a valley between them. Without communication, we lose what we could have heard from real people. When we miss the meaning of a language, we miss the real essence and impact of communication!!!”
― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

Or that: "I understand that scumbag who raped you because his wife ran out on him and he wanted to blow off steam". Only most hard-hearted person can say that.”
― Bryanna Reid

“SENSES, APPEARANCE, ESSENCE and EXISTENCE
The world we see with our senses are very different than the world we see through our essence. Our senses perceive the world of appearance. Our essence perceive the deeper layers of existence.

― Petek Kabakci

“- Aišku ne. Bet per daugelį metų tiek kartų teko matyti, kaip šiaip jau "geri" žmonės staiga pridaro neįsivaizduojamų baisybių: vyrai pasmaugia neištikimas žmonas, broliai gelbsti seseris nuo smurtaujančių partnerių. Galiausiai supranti...
- Supranti - ką?
- Kad iš tikrųjų net ir nėra "gerų" žmonių. Yra tik tie, kurie buvo nustumti per toli, ir tie, kurie nebuvo.”
