Avoid Direct Confrontation with Word Pictures - November 5

Learning to Communicate...

"How do you honestly tell the one you love about something you find displeasing or aggravating without prompting that familiar defensive stare or indifferent shrug?  You can help your mate become more sensitive to the problem by using a word picture rather than direct confrontation.  Use examples that interest him or her, such as hobbies, everyday objects, or imaginary stories."
