Sensibility in Human Relations

Last night I was swing dancing, and I was paying extra attention to be able to feel even the lightes lead by my partner. It requires a lot of presence and sensitivity! But my sensibility got better and better and it was great to notice how it made dancing easier, as it is the guys job to lead and I should only follow. This made me thinking about sensibility in relationships in general.

Do you know those people, who very easily sense how you feel, even though you might put on the perfect make up to hide things? Usually it is a good friend, who knows you thoroughly, but many times it is possible to sense "hidden information" from somebody you don't take under your skin. People have natural talent and ability to this, as it is part of the communication: the none-verbal part. Everybody knows when there is a change in group-dynamics or if you meet a couple who's having a silent fight. But if you can get very sensitive in these things, it can be a real benefit.

As following the lead in dancing, sensibility in human relations requires presence and certain tenderness. Additionally it requires a genuine positive interest in the other person. Many times someone capable of this is someone worth trusting: many times they are so strong that they have the courage to be tender.

Next Week Is GreenGreenGreen

As we are going to Dublin. Cannot wait! The best part of traveling is meeting new people: the easiest way of doing that is staying at a hostel, in a dorm room. Quality of sleeping is not good, but then again not completely crappy, but you never know where you end up with your new friends. Me and Sipuli had a great experience when we stayed in a dorm in Prague. Spanish group of students and us threw a party to remember. So Dublin and new friends, here we come!
