Wouldn't it be great if we never had to have a disagreement or confrontation with someone? Unfortunately, I don't believe that we see that in this lifetime, but I do believe that we can help ourselves have fewer misunderstandings and confrontations. In fact, I know there is one person who is responsible for most of our problems and if we can control that person, we will live a much more peaceful life. We would love to hear your comments.

We are told that we only remember 20% of what we hear, and that we only hear 80% of what is being said to us. Most of what we miss is because our minds are already on to something else before the other person is finished talking. Our inability to actually hear what the other person is saying affects our relationship with them. Even when the other person is God himself. We would love to hear your comments.
