We have a very sophisticated system for relating to other people. We usually aren’t aware of how sophisticated until we try to do it consciously. Try consciously deciding how loud to speak when someone is walking towards you, so that your voice will be ...

One commenter on my last post (Connecting with the Emotion) pointed me to a website she has set up to provide a place of listening and mutual support.
