Sometimes there are no words....

From the song 'No Words' by The Script:

But what can I say
About something that blows me away
Without it sounding like another cliché?
From what I've seen and I've heard,
When it comes to you, baby, there are no words.

"In the last analysis, what we are communicates far more eloquently than anything we say or do."
- Stephen Covey
"The biggest mistake is believing there is one right way to listen, to talk, to have a conversation -- or a relationship."
- Deborah Tannen

"My opinion is effective communication comes from the desire to communicate. If a person wishes to get their point across, they will do what it takes to make it happen. If another person wants to understand what they are being told or shown, they will make the effort to comprehend."
- Christopher Morgan, Communication - Beyond words

Do you believe the ability to express yourself is a skill or is it an innate ability?

We need to communicate.....

From the song 'The Living Years' by Mike & The Mechanics:

You say you just don't see it,
He says it's perfect sense,
You just can't get agreement,
In this present tense,
We all talk a different language,
Talking in defense.

Say it loud, say it clear,
You can listen as well as you hear.
It's too late when we die,
To admit we don't see eye to eye.

"Effective communication is 20% what you know and 80% how you feel about what you know."
- Jim Rohn
