---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. --Aldous Huxley ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Max wrote... ===================================================================== Instead of the mechanical "happy new year" wish i suggest the following: ask everyone how u related to him/her during the past year and what he/she expects from you in the future year and thereafter you try to improvise ===================================================================== A neat idea... Max ! :-) A good exercise in self-improvement. :-) All that is needed is honesty and the ability to handle criticism. Also another question to ask is -- do we want to be honest or do we want to "live in peace" ?? At work... those of us who work in high-stress teams are often shown videos on inter-personal communication. Last year we watched a video where a camera was hidden in a restaurant. An actor entered... sat next to a man eating at the counter... and without saying a word... grabbed some french fries off the man's plate. This scenario was repeated numerous times... and nine times out of ten, the "victims" never said a word. One could see that they were doing a slow burn inside... they clenched their fists and glared at the "thief" in disbelief. But they never said a word. Later... the lesson of the video was discussed. And we learnt that when people submerge their true feelings to preserve harmony... they undermine the integrity of a relationship. They buy peace on the surface... but underneath there are hurt feelings... troubling questions and hidden hostilities just waiting to erupt. It is indeed a costly price to pay for a cheap "peace"... and it inevitably leads to false relationships. Thanks and have a nice day... -Sam. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To join/leave, use the form at: http://www.mumbai-central.com/nukkad/#options This list is archived at: http://www.mumbai-central.com/nukkad/archive.html
