7-26-2022 – A Word to the Wise – On the gifts:
Lets’ address the issue of emotional and non-emotional gifts. These two just like verbal and non-verbal represent dividing lines in the gifts. But while a mixture allows a wider relationship it also poses problems. Starting with the emotional versus the non-emotional.
The world view of each is much different. The emotional person filters experiences from the position of feelings. Either of themselves or others. This is not a factor with the non-emotional gift. Several years ago, a person came out with a book called; the ‘Emotional IQ.’
Though odd it is accurate. Some have emotional sensitive off the chart; in contrast others have emotional IQs approaching zero. Those with low emotional IQ find it difficult to connect with the feelings of others. Often discounting feeling altogether.
How does this affect marriage?
