Hi Everyone, Marshall Rosenberg developed Non-Violent Communication (NVC) techniques which could be helpful for all of us on the message board. The website is http://www.cnvc.org/en/about/what-is-nvc.html There are CD's available, and I remember someone last year was thinking of doing a workshop in La Manzanilla. It is truly worthwhile and would help us all in our dealings with each other and our Mexican friends and employees. Every couple of years our women's outreach sponsors a 2 Day workshop (including men). Here is a quote from their website: "Through the practice of NVC, we can learn to clarify what we are observing, what emotions we are feeling, what values we want to live by, and what we want to ask of ourselves and others. We will no longer need to use the language of blame, judgment or domination." Communicating non-violently allows our "needs" to be expressed and "requests" to be made without making the other person feel angry or hurt or threatened or???. I think Dan was defending his young friend who is a hard worker and a wonderful father to his young family. We're all nice people and this message board is a microcosm of the world out there. We are all different, but same same. |
