it's about that time

It's been quite some time since I've written about the strengths of humanity. No matter how we all can become collectively selfish there always seems to be that spark that fires in each of us (mostly) that causes us to reach out to someone in their time of need. Whether it be someone having dropped something on the side of the street on a rather serious accident. There is that spark of humanity that unites all of us.

That very same humanity is what qualifies the need for the moment that we share. That grows the bond between us. Whether that bond be friendship or a relationship the one major key there is to foster that bond through communication. Communication being the most abstract concept of them all. We "speak" in so many fashions on a daily basis that we don't even realize. A grimmace of the brow, a smile, a passing touch and the all but most powerful, honesty! Yes folks. Believer it or not, but honestly is the one thing that is truly required to foster and grow the human moment. We're all deficient in some ways -- I know I am on many occassions.

One thing I've considering doing as of recent is walking up to a perfect stranger, engaging them in conversation, and telling them exactly what I think and seeing where that conversation goes. More often than not we're all hindered by what society qualifies as a "social norm." Let's all throw that convention out the window and share the smile of honesty with each other. Just look at where that's gotten everyone. I'm sure the next person you talk to would find it refreshing.
