When it comes to conversations, confrontations, relationships, professional and personal ... it's important, clutch, and courageous to look at both sides of the coin. See the situation from the other person's POV versus just your own. Lets take a relationship for example. You get into an argument over something big, perhaps something that makes you ...
Yes, the pandemic has sucked. Yes, losing businesses, retail closures, restaurants, and broadway and more has sucked. A lot of it, has sucked.
