The Historical Roots of Depression

It can feel awkward to talk about sensitive issues in a relationship. Men especially want to avoid these talks at any price. 
There are personal and gender differences how people deal with relationship issues. Some, especially women, want to talk it out, men mostly want to do something about it instead of talking. 
Women also tend to expect their needs to be guessed as men usually want to be told  what is expected of them.
So these different expectations and styles create communication divides that need to be overcome.
So gentlemen, just open the door and invite your lady in for a hearty conversation! Listen to her and consider what was said without interrupting her.
If you want to hear more, just listen!

This is a Brainsnacking episode within the Journaling Thursday series about water.
Water is so precious with its four billion-year-old history and its wonderful chemistry and natural purification cycle that we all need to know more about this substance that has sustained life for over three billion years on earth. 
With knowledge it comes appreciation, with appreciation it comes humility and respect. Simple things, like H2O can teach you so much!

Communication Tuesdays
What is violent communication? 
The way we have been talked down to in the past eight thousand years. The whole worlds speaks this language in different tongues.
What is non-violent communication?
It is the language of the people that are equal and respectful, who care for each other's needs and feelings and mean no harm in any way.
It can be spoken in any tongues but needs a lot of practice to learn!
Democracy, respect, compassion and care needs to be nurtured and practiced, it cannot be dismissed in one sentence.
When you Let Your Genius Emerge, you discover your own humanity and will never go back to being a violent angry jackal!
