Once again, I was blessed to have another engaging conversation of depth and discovery. I was traveling with a friend to meet with a consultant who shared some mutual interests. Of course, as we drove to our destination, we conversed. What I realized was the incredible enjoyment of our interaction and the manner in which it helps each of us create something new.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, What is Your Conversation With Life, we were not simply talking. We were actually creating as the conversation was happening. I found that our conversation included these qualities:
- conversation is creative
- conversation is life-giving
- conversation grants permission for uniqueness and expression
- conversation promotes authenticity
- conversation helps us to understand and move towards wholeness
- conversations teach us how to listen
- conversation lends itself to discovering “the other as a true other”
- conversation deepens intimacy (knowing of self and another)
- conversation invites God to be involved
In future blogs, I am sure that I will be elaborating on these qualities that lifted from my conversation with a special friend. This w
as my conversation with life and I was sensitized to the beauty of giving consent to the conversation. What are your conversations creating today? Have you reflected much on the qualities that seem to emerge from your conversations? I encourage you to continue to deepen your Conversation with Life!
