"A satisfying conversation is one in which you say what you have never said before."

- Theodore Zeldin

So important to reflect on this when so much of our communication can be relegated to the superficial. Whether this conversation is online or eye-to-eye, we should treat the art of conversation as an adventure where two or more minds interact with the potential to create something new.  Do not assume that you already know what the other person is thinking or feeling. 

Challenge the desire to be proven right: seek to stimulate and educate, in conjunction with being stimulated and educated.
