Perception is what thte people around the world react to. Truth which should be our just balance isn't aways available or even welcomed when it is. Ask a republicann and a demoacrat to defeinee the other one. Would you be presented with truthful descripitions? Or ask a Chevy owner and a FOrd owner who makes tthe better trck.Or an accomplished ballroom dancer and a master chess player whose activity is more gruelling. It seems what we ahve here is a differing of opinion on the moral, social, political, religious, etc. worth of the topci and the tone of presentation of the supporters of each side of the various topics. old proverb, " i would rather live withi a constant dripping of water, or live on th roof wiith the goat than live in ths house with a contentious or annoying person" ----- Original Message ----- From: "janet paterson" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 8:57 AM Subject: perceiving conflict > hi all > > if there are no distinctly condscending words > and no condescension intended or even considered by the sender > and a message is seen by some recipients as condescending > could it be that the condescension > is in the eye of the recipient > and not the sender? > > how then can the sender correct the misunderstanding? > > perceptions are our choice > > is our will to resolve a conflict > or is it to advance one? > > janet > > > > janet paterson: an akinetic rigid subtype, albeit perky, parky > pd: 55/41/37 cd: 55/44/43 tel: 613 256 8340 email: [log in to unmask] > smail: 375 Country Street, Almonte, Ontario, Canada, K0A 1A0 > a new voice: http://www.geocities.com/janet313/ > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] > In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
