Conversation

on things like emotional tone or verbal cues. While we were discussing high context versus low context, we both connected on having a hard time thinking of nonverbal cues and how they come into conversations. It was interesting to see that we both view conversations in the same way and interpret conversations in a low context. I have never connected that we both think that way in that aspect. Not having the knowledge of the contexts I hadn't thought about how people converse and what they get…

my house”. This conversation allowed the children to build language, communication and teacher/child interactions. The children and I enjoyed the book, because it showed us the role of jobs in our community. The visual was a wonderful addition to the children interrupting the correct language with the proper community person. The children took turns matching the flash cards. They often ask questions like “Who is this”? And “What do they do”? It seems to be a lot of conversation and language…

Social Media’s Impact on Grief In the beginning of time, mankind knew the euphoria of love and happiness. However, the agony of grief and sadness also plagued the hearts of man. In the modern world where it seems as if anything can be bought or solved online, humans still lack the ability to solve the problems within themselves.

It was day 9 of the 12-day cruise. Sitting with my family at the dinner table, I interrupted the conversation and asked if I could be excused so I could go see some friends that I had met on our cruise. I got the go ahead and the time I had to be back in the cabin that night.

I went back to the room, changed, grabbed my phone then went out. The usual…
