DIALOGUE


So much time is wasted on what passes for dialogue.  Rather than an exchange between two people that strengthens a connection, we have two soliloquies whose breathless chatter digs a chasm a mile wide.

If questions don’t punctuate the exchange, if the exchange doesn’t include time when each takes a turn to listen, then walk away, because it’s not a dialogue, it’s an ego stroke fest.  

We need to build bridges that connect us not trenches that separate us.
