Let us commit ourselves to listening to each other in such a way that my listening is aimed at understanding the other person and letting their words mean what they mean to them, not what they mean to me.
We commit ourselves to speak, not to convince or impose, but to give the other person a chance to understand us. During our General Chapter, each of us must be open to the action of the Spirit within us, individually and collectively, without closing ourselves off, without prejudice, without preconceived ideas, and without being blocked by what we think we already know. - Charles Phukuta, Chronica No. 4, 2023, P154
