Are you in conflict or collaboration?
.
Even in the most dire situations I am coming to understanding the empowerment we offer by approaching others from a place of non judgmental listening.
.
At the same time, I am learning that for it to be collaboration, listening is not enough; though it is so very hard, I am learning that for communication to be compassionately collaborative, my listening needs to understand, to hear needs, and to reflect in openness those needs I hear.
.
And with that, I also have come to understand that before I can be in collaboration with others, I first need to find the right place and space to feel heard as well.
.
When I find the time and space to be heard I can listen to my own needs and know where my own heart is. Not so that I can demand my needs to be met by another, but so I can genuinely meet another in compassionate communication where I seek to find a collaborative solution that understands the innate human need for love and respect.
