Speaker 1: Clyde Lee Dennis Here and today in our seven Good
Speaker 1: Minutes extra segment, our thought for today is true communication
Speaker 1: happens in the space between words, where listening becomes an
Speaker 1: act of love and speaking becomes an art of truth.
Speaker 1: We often think of communication as the words we say,
Speaker 1: the messages we deliver, the points we make. But the
Speaker 1: real magic of communication, the kind that builds connection and trust,
Speaker 1: lives in what happens between the words. It's in the listening,
Speaker 1: the full present kind of listening that doesn't rush to respond,
Speaker 1: doesn't prepare a rebuttal while the other is speaking, but
Speaker 1: listens to understand. That kind of listening says you matter,
Speaker 1: I hear you, I'm with you, and in that space
Speaker 1: love is felt without needing to be spoken. Then there's
Speaker 1: the speaking. True communication isn't just about saying what's on
Speaker 1: your mind. It's about choosing words with care, speaking from truth,
Speaker 1: not ego, from clarity, not defensiveness. That kind of speaking
Speaker 1: doesn't just convey information, it carries integrity. When we slow
Speaker 1: down and honor both sides, listening and speaking, we create
Speaker 1: space for something deeper, something healing. Communication becomes more than conversation.
Speaker 1: It becomes connection. Here's a question to reflect on today.
Speaker 1: Where in your life can you bring more presence and
Speaker 1: honesty into the way you communicate. Today's positive affirmation is
Speaker 1: I listen with love, speak with truth, and create space
Speaker 1: for genuine connection. Remember, the most powerful communication is not
Speaker 1: just heard, it's felt. Speak less to impress and more
Speaker 1: to connect. Until next time, I'm Clydeleie Dennis and this
Speaker 1: has been seven good minutes extra
