Day 96

Conversation doesn’t need to be a conversion.

I’m not really a people person. I’m happy to engage but I really struggle with small talk. I’m not very good at it so it can quickly become awkward and uncomfortable. And I wear my heart of my sleeve so it’s pretty obvious.

However, I am always up for and open to a discussion, to hearing somebodies point of view on a subject matter.

To hear someone else’s reasoning isn’t about me look to change my point of view (although sometimes it might), it’s about understanding somebody else’s.

When we can understand why someone thinks in a certain way, we can understand their actions. It doesn’t always mean we need to necessarily agree with them but it can allow us to have compassion, as well as an open heart and mind.
