Study Notes

Importance of Communication in Strengthening Family Ties

Love is the most effective form of communication, uniting the minds and hearts of two people without the need for words.
Dr. Manuel Dy (2010) states that language serves as a social tool for humans.
Communication is vital for the continuous pursuit of truth.
It encompasses any signs or symbols used by individuals to express thoughts and values.

Understanding Dialogues and Relationships

Entitlement mentality reflects a lack of respect for elders and authority figures.
Authentic communication, referred to as "dialogue" by Martin Buber, begins with the art of listening.
Justice represents the minimum contribution to dialogue, while love represents its highest form.
In dialogue, individuals learn to stand on a "narrow ridge," respecting each other's dignity through the I-Thou perspective.
The ability to communicate is unique to humans; animals may act but lack conscious awareness, as seen in Ivan Pavlov's conditioning.
