It might be a lover, a friend, an online buddy, a mother, a father, a brother, a sister, or some other soul who has become entangled within yours. We live for these people, we are alive because of these people, and we love them. Take a moment out of your day and let them know. Take a moment to think about what you say to someone else, or write online or in e-mail, before doing so. All too often we too quickly write our thoughts and feelings down on this computer screen without sitting back to reflect on our thoughts and feelings.
Reflection adds perspective and can enhance communication between individuals.
If we remember that the person we're responding to is another live human being with feelings and thoughts of their own, I think we could all get along a little bit better online and in the world in general. It's hard to do that sometimes, but I'm going to make a better effort to do it. After a little testing though, I discovered that the numbers they cite are anything but accurate.
