After being on MyEC for almost one year, I have always seen this statement many times: “We should understand each other.” But, I have seen the usage of aggressive, misunderstanding and insulting words throughout comments or chat rooms. Therefore, I thought what we practically do to attain it? And what creates misunderstanding?According to Dr. Maxwell, the author of the book Relationship 101, the reasons to misunderstanding are fear, self-centeredness, failure to appreciate the differences and failure to appreciate similarities.One good way to prevent misunderstanding is to put ourselves into friends’ shoes. It means if we were them and had the same situation, what would we do?Another way is that not to think we are superior to others and what we do or think is the best. Instead, thinking that what we can learn from the differences. Everyone has something to give or teach us. So, it is good to make most of this opportunity.In addition to what mentioned above, some sentences are useful to be used in conversations. We can use “we” instead of “I”. We can use “Thank you” and “You did a good job” more. In discussions, “I want to understand you better” or “what is your opinion” are very helpful.People eagerly look for peace in the world and ask how they can bring it into the world. Peace is nothing but living in harmony with others and this can come to exist with understanding each other. If we do not practice how to understand each other in a small community, MyEC, how do we expect to bring peace into the world?I am so sure there are a lot of techniques that we can apply to our daily life to understand others. If you have any idea, please share it. I very much appreciate your help and kindness.Have a lovely day,Nafis
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"
This biblical phrase would be the best way to achieve peace in the world ... a clear and honest rule for success, if applied by all.
Have a nice day.

Dear Suela, what you said is totally true but I don't know why people take everything so personally. And, when they get angry, they just cut the communication by not talking about it. I think this is very terrible and sounds very childish.
I think that the best way to understand each other is that " listen to each other " because if you do, you will understand what the person means. and if don't do so, how will get what he/she means!
thank you for this nice topic
Dear Adek, I love your opinion over this matter that if we put "some conditions" to our thoughts toward others, we lose our friends. We should love people unconditionally. This is really true and thanks for bringing up. However, my reason to write is not to give people advice. It is just an English writing practice and at the same time, thinking about subjects attract me. Hope you don't think I am giving advice since this is not true. I was curious to know what others do to understand each other. Thanks a lot for your opinion and also reading my blog. Your ideas are always welcomed..Have a lovely time
