Somehow I Need To Talk Less
Author: siggySomehow I need to talk less. I need to give my wife more empty spaces. I forget this all too often. I do not have to repeat myself unless it is evident she did not hear me or understand me. All this is very hard for me. I know I have to work on it.
Less is always more. It is too easy to fill up the blank spaces with words. I have to give my “other” a chance to reflect on my words. All this takes time. Communication is not immediate. This age of cell phones and other technology gives this illusion that communication is instant. It is the hardest thing in the whole world. It is work.
When I believe I am being perfectly clear in my communication with my wife, I find out I wasn’t.
