"If you don't know where you're going, chances are you will end up somewhere else." - Yogi Berra
I would like to offer the 'yang' to Mr. Berra's 'yin'...
“If you don’t remember where you came from, how will you know if you ever left?”When you can face a single aspect of your anchors to change i.e, where you came from, and take honest steps of transformation, that action becomes immediately evident to others.
This type of change, both internal and external must include both trust and intimacy and has the potential to become, on a more global basis, the energy for social transformation in the 21st century.
The results could be a growing momentum of people who become agents of change.
However, we are hindered in the ability to express ourselves emotionally by the limitations of 'the language of emotions'. We adapt to and use the limited vocabulary that we inherited and learned as children.
Accordingly, it is the language we speak, and the language we translate…when listening to others.
I believe...
"It is not simply that ‘Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus’…
We are all from planet Earth…
We simply have different lexicons for emotional expression."
