"most conversations with parents go wrong because both parties are trying to have to come to an agreement. the truth is, talking shouldn't be about compromise, it should be about understanding the other person, and trying to get them to understand us, as opposed to fofrlcing our opinion on the other person."
a good friend of mine found that on a piece of paper in the hall.
and another dear friend said it was serendipitous.

but it's so true... if we spent less time speaking, and more time listening [i said listening, not hearing] then i really thing we could do alot for the world.
