CLOSE-UP
To get a clear close-up,
it’s important to slow down,
to pause - to say to another
at a good time,
“Did you think out -
and think about -
what you just said -
or was it just a throwaway comment?”
Scratch that.
Better….
Start with oneself.
Ask, "Why am I tapping my finger
when so and so enters
the room?"
"Why am I hesitating to give her
a compliment or a comment?"
"Why am I nervous with so and so?"
