It’s a universal issue. A complication that can make or break even the very best of relationships. The smallest amount of disregard can cause an avalanche of assumption. Intentions become irrelevant in the aftermath. I’ve always been a voice of reason to friends around me. A confidant that cares. My gift of empathy gives me depth that my experience cannot […]
