What's Up @ the Library?
So, you think you’re good at making the people in your lives feel seen and known? You maaay want to think again. Humans are generally not very good at deeply knowing and valuing other people, although we’d like to think we are! That’s why we’ve all probably felt invisible, unseen, or misunderstood at some point. So, how do we go beyond the surface level and really get to know a person in a way that helps “them feel valued, heard, and understood”?
Bestselling author David Brooks seeks to address this pervasive lack of deep connection in his book, “How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen.” Your Valor Library Team has been reading this book together, discovering practical advice that addresses a variety of crucial questions: If I want to know a person, what kind of attention should I give them? What kind of conversations should I have? What part of a person’s story should I pay attention to?
This is a simple yet insightful read that will leave you pondering how you can better know others. Check it out from Valor Library in print or digital format!
