Quotes from Marshall Rosenberg


“Never do anything that isn’t play”

 This is one of the key principles in Compassionate Communication. It is an encouragement to always do things that are in alignment with our own needs and values. When we are in alignment with our needs and values, we get great pleasure and meaning from things we  do. That doesn’t mean that life is always easy or that we don’t work hard; it means that there is still a greater joy and purpose that makes the hardship worthwhile and meaningful. When we are not in alignment with our needs and values, it is easy to lose our self-connection, inspiration and joy. Very little things in life can exhaust us. Giraffes like to live lives filled with “play”.
