Climb your way up, to reach heart-to-heart conversations.
I love old “Smart” sayings, they bring back memories. For example a good one is “You cannot climb a smooth mountain”. Actually, this image works well on the topic about conversations.
You probably can relate to me when I say, that we all have a big variety of different types of friends. There are those who are really close to us. We want to connect with them and we do feel bad when work, school or whatever steals the time that otherwise we could spend with these awesome folks.
This group receives our likes on social media and direct calls when we have some news to tell.
Also, there is a group of friends who we like to talk with, but don’t really stiff up an effort to meet them and develop deeper connections.
But with each of these groups we have conversations, we talk. And it’s no-brainer to know that any interaction can take you anywhere in terms of emotions and experiences.
Can somebody climb a smooth mountain? I’ll give you the download — probably yes, but would it be fun? We need hilly mountains to experience something great. Conversations are like that, now and then we will have arguments, fun times, breakthroughs. But in the end, it’s the journey of climbing the way that gives a lot of memories. Eventually, It is the only way to reach heart-to-heart conversations.
I hope that anyone who experiences both fun times and setbacks can eventually capitalize the relationships and make the most out of any type of situation.
As I’m sharing this, I already know that there are some of my friends that I have had struggles to connect and some were easy to connect with. But in the end they all are important to me.
Pure and bold conversations bring life to our days and is good for our brain too. M.D Andrew Newberg shared a good point on one of his book, “The more social ties we have, the less our cognitive abilities will decline. But don’t just talk about weather or gossip about the neighbors. These forms of dialogue are more like monologues, and they won’t engage the brain as much as a deeper conversation. Talk about abstract ideals like harmony e.c.”
Conversations shaped like mountains are all around us. It’s amazing and tremendous to know victory. To feel the moment when there is even a small presence of heart-to-heart connection. It’s priceless.
