We engage in conversations every single day don’t we? We talk about the weather, we talk about our kids, we talk about our jobs, we talk about our cards, our latest trip, the latest diet, our parents, the family, the house, the yard. I just wonder what the point of all of this is. Is it really what we are meaning to say? There seems to be the basic conversations that the majority of society has…..
~ When we talk about our appearances… “Wow, Karen you look amazing, what are you doing with yourself?” We talk about what we are doing to ourselves, whether it be natural or whether it be the latest surgery that we had. Or “do you think that I really look that good? I am thinking about getting that new laser surgery what do you think?” Or people clearly have had so much surgery but they never talk about it. They walk around like no one know that they just had botox injected into their forehead. We go out and we say how wonderful everyone looks and then get in the car and say did you see so and so I heard she was sick, she looked horrible. What about that dress she was wearing, what was she thinking? And, where was her husband?
~ The latest vacation. “oh yes I just got back from Europe we had a wonderful time.” Talk about vacations, cruises, or time off that we had. Do people really enjoy their time off? Or are they just as planned out as their daily lives with so many things to do, a tour here, a museum there, this that and the other that they miss out on the beauty of the actual place. But, we still talk about it as if it was the best thing in the world and we had an amazing time on our last vacation. Then we talk about where we are planning on going next… we also can talk about the weather in there as well…. 
~ Family. What are the husbands doing? What are the kids doing? What you are doing, and what your planning on doing in the future. Is everything good with you? People always ask what we are up to? Are they genuinely interested in what we are doing, or our kids, or our husbands? Or is that they are just wanting to know to be able to compare their life to someone else’s? Or maybe it is just to make the small talk and act like they really care what we are talking about?
~ Illness, health or compaints. “Yeah I just had surgery on my foot”! Well, I have been struggling with my this that and the other disease. Or my husband has been pretty ill with his cancer, so that is what we are spending most of our time on. Complain about our houses, our cars, our jobs, whatever. The husband that left us, the husband who is never home. The kid who is skipping school. Whatever people are more compelled to complain about their life more than say how wonderful it is. People are just looking for other people to have a complaint so as to feel that their life is more normal maybe?
~ Other people. Check back with the post on Gossip. People love to talk about other people. What are so and so up to? And Gosh I haven’t seen her forever.. I heard this and I heard that… And she is doing that, and he did that!
~ Politics, The world, the War, religion, best seller books…. Intellectual worldly talk. Like we have any idea what is going on. We watch the news and learn somethings and then we think we have a handle on it and we are educated. Maybe that is education, and maybe not? Who is giving us our information the paper, the news? Who are they? Are they really informed of what is going on. We talk about how much we love this guy and hate that guy. How that guy is a jerk, should have never been elected. We should kill and bomb everyone…. Then in the next sentence we can say, oh did you read so and so’s latest book? It is so great!!
So, these are just some of the conversations that I find most people having… Just this small talk conversation. I would love for a world to talk openly about how amazing their life was, how everything was magical. How they had the most amazing night with their husband. That someone talks about things that are taboo, money, sex, and dreams. I mean everyone that we talk to has a dream. Don’t they? Maybe I am just crazy but I feel that everyone has a dream or something that they would really love to do. YET, when in conversation they are talking about their job that they hate. Their so called dream to become a dancer isn’t even talked about, yet it is something that they love, that they can’t stop thinking about. We just hide it. We go in the reoccurring conversation that we always have each time we go out, or each time we see someone we haven’t seen in a long time. I am not saying that this talk is bad. It is what it is and it is good to connect with people. But what would it look like if we dug a big deeper to wonderabout what their hearts wanted. That we actually talked about our hearts desire’s…. I just seek that. I seek to pull that out of people, I seek to inspire people to not go on living in silence. If they want to know about something, if they want to talk to someone on a deeper level they go for it, that there is open communication for anyone.
We are all human beings we all desire communication. There is just so much more room for more expressive communication in my opinion. More than majority of the people are having. Let’s talk about things that we are so called not suppose to talk about, and let go of talking about things that aren’t important to us…. I want to know who people are. I don’t want to know about their dogs, their kids not behaving, or their husbands, I want to know what makes their heart beat faster. I want to know what moves them, I want to know what they dream about, I want to know about them. Not about how much they know about the world, or how much they know about this that and the other. Granted that is all exciting as well, but I just desire a deeper connection with people….
Authentic, Open Communication along with all the other topics of conversations! I think that conversation is very enlightening! But, sometimes it would be nice to spice it up a bit and go down another layer! That’s all for now!
