Communication

Why is it that most people won't talk to a stranger anymore? Say hello to someone as you walk by and you'll be lucky to get a grunt if they're not wearing an iPod or talking on the cell phone.

Our ability to speak is what separates us from animals yet we shun using this wonderful thing. You can learn something from anyone. Speaking is an opportunity for two lives' paths to cross, for experiences to be shared and for lessons to be learned.

Next time some one tries to shoot the shit with you, entertain them and answer! It will make their day, I assure you. Don't be like so many of us that just stare back with "I-don't-know-you" eyes.
