Speak With Love

A boy and his stepfather have difficulty communicating with each other. The father is a friendly person, while the son is quiet. The father likes fishing, while the son likes to read. In order to be closer to him, his father took him fishing. The son didn’t really like the invitation, but he didn’t know how to tell his father directly. So he wrote on a piece of paper that he wanted to go home. After looking at it for a while, the father pocketed the paper.

The fishing event continued for the next four days. When they finally got home, the son expressed his despair to his mother and said that his stepfather didn’t care about his writing. But the mother said to him, “Son, your father can’t read.”Unfortunately, the father never revealed this to the child.

Good communication occurs not only when we know what we want to say, but also when we know the person we are talking to. To get to know each other, we must be willing if others know our weaknesses and shortcomings. “Therefore throw away lies and speak the truth one to another, for we are members of one another.” Be kind to one another, loving and forgiving one another. Come on, open your ears to understand, then speak with love.
