Need to provoke UNDERSTANDING…

Understanding acts as the key ingredient in every relationship.Lack of it makes the relationship inconstant.

As per the definition in Oxford dictionary, 'understanding' is perceiving the intended meaning of words or language of the speaker.

These days people neither understands nor tries to understand each other.One does something wrong,others starts accusing him/her not knowing if that was intentional or just natural.

We,human beings,need to realise that we’ve been blessed with all remarkable attributes any other living being can have.Understanding each other is something that we are getting devoid of day-by-day.People pay no heed to what might be the reason for someone’s anger,frustration or depression,rather judge them for behaving or becoming wierd simply because judging others is like second nature to people.If you cannot help them, atleast try to understand them.

Lately,I have come across an incident.One of my friends told me that these days she gets furious whenever her parents commands or prohibits her for anything and as a result of her anger she gets into a dispute with them,hence spoiling her relationship with her parents.To this,I asked her to do just one thing;next time whenever similar happens she would not utter even a single word to them instead go to her room,calm down herself and let her parents too.Then,after sometime go to her parents and politely ask them the reason for doing so,for it will be the best time when her parents will be able to explain and she will be able to understand.She practised this for a few times and one day when we did catch up,said"thankyou for such an advice,you made me save my relationship with my parents that was getting ruined days before because I never tried to ask them for reason and understand it.”

I have shared this just as an example to give you a glimpse of what understandings can save, misunderstandings can spoil and no understandings can terminate.

Here’s listing few ways to understand others:-

•Be all ears when someone speaks.

•Be either empathic or sympathetic ; if both - it’s best.

•Ask relevant questions.

•Be tactful.

•Do not assume.

To conclude, understanding each other not only benefits the other person but you too.It saves your relationships,makes you grow together,gives peace to mind and ultimately lets you live mirthfully.
