“The extraordinary language of Nonviolent Communication is changing how parents relate to children, teachers to students, and how we all related to each other and even to ourselves. It is precise, disciplined, and enormously compassionate. Most important, once we study NVC we can't ignore the potential for transformation that lies in any difficult relationship - if we only bother to communicate with skill and empathy.” IfsChildrenImportantLyingLanguageParentDifficultStudyTeacherStudentsCommunicationSkillsEmpathyTransformationExtraordinaryCommunicateRelateBotherRelatedCompassionatePreciseNonviolent CommunicationTeacher StudentDifficult Relationship Author:Bernie Glassman
“Time is the most extraordinary gift for friendship. You'll get to eat your meals together and study together; in some cases you'll even sleep in the same room. You'll have time to waste on each other. You'll find out every single thing you have in common and still have time to catalogue all of your differences. Don't underestimate the vital necessity of friendship in your life because it is the thing that will sustain you later, when there will be considerably less time.” StillsTogetherDifferencesSleepRoomsCommonCasesStudyWasteExtraordinaryMealsUnderestimateCatalogues Book:This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage Source: This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage
