Civility seems to have gone out the window. Great post. You're quite the thinker, I see. ;-) I completely agree. Civility seems to have gone out the window.

It especially concerns those whose work is connected with communication. You have to take others' point of view into consideration and be able to contact those whom you don't feel respect to. I can say that I have such a skill. The abilty to hold the conversation is one of the most difficult ones. It especially concerns those whose work is connected with communication.

We communicate using the same words but the concepts underneath may not be exactly the same. As Nietzcsche said in 'on truth and lie in an extra moral sense': No leaf ever wholly equals another. He could have probably said the same about 'point of view'. So if we use the same word but the meanings aren't exactly the same, there's room for misunderstanding. Engaging in conversations requires us to be fully aware of those kind of traps we each have in us and focus on the relationship with 'like' minded people...because it's the ultimate quest of social media.

Being new to social media, it is quite fascinating. I'm meeting new folks, learning new things and expanding my horizons into unknown territory. I would hope that the path I'm following will continue to bear positive fruit and the path I'm leaving behind will draw others to do the same...honesty, free-exchange of ideas and openness to new & different concepts. In short we need to live by, practice, teach and exhort, the Golden Rule, to do unto others, as we would have them do unto us. Aretha said it best, all we want is a RESPECT, in person, on-line and in life. Good post Chris; I was drawn by the title (good marketing) and stayed because of the writing (good content).

How is it different than just giving a report of what one is going to do at work? I feel that in my work life, I don't converse, I just give reports. What is conversation?

I knew I liked you, now I know we are kindred spirits. Hang in there in the face of criticism. The easy thing to do is hide in the shadows and wish that things were different or better. You're not doing that. It takes courage to step out front and take the arrows. More than 40 of us are right here with you. Lead on. Very well written, Chris.
