Communication

Paper Summary:

This paper explains that talking is by far the most used form of communication, yet writing has been found to be a more insightful communication mode. The author points out that the secrets to a strong relationship are talking, listening and dialogueing. The paper suggests that because of the large influence communication has on relationships, it is vital that individuals connect with their internal emotions and communication methods so that fallacies in communication can be ascertained and corrected.

From the Paper:

"In order for a relationship to be successful, a sense of trust and mutuality must be established. Each individual trades aspects of himself or herself with the other person. If this trust is validated and reciprocated, the relationship deepens. My relationship did not form this trust basis and remained superficial. We were both at an age where we were easily influenced by our families and friends and still rather shy about letting anyone into our inner worlds. Yet these inner worlds are where our true selves reside. It is within where a relationship lives and is nurtured. If one individual or the other cannot open up their internal world and share it with the other individual, the relationship will remain superficial and not be successful beyond the acquaintance stage. Although writing about relationships and the feelings they invoke can be a journey of self-awareness, it is the oral communication that makes or breaks a relationship."
