It’s Never Too Late
Several years ago,while attending a communications course,I experienced a most unusual process.The instructor asked us to list anything in our past that we felt ashamed of,guilty about,regretted,or incomplete about.The next week he invited participants to read their lists aloud.This seemed like a very private process,but there\'s always some brave soul in the crowd who will volunteer.As people read their lists,mine grew longer.After three weeks,I had 101 items on my list.The instructor then suggested that we find ways to make amends,apologize to people,or take some action to right any wrongdoing.I was seriously wondering how this could ever improve my communications,having visions of alienating just about everyone from my life.
The next week,the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story:
"While making my list,I remembered an incident from high school.I grew up in a small town in Iowa.There was a sheriff in town that none of us kids liked.One night,my two buddies and I decided to play a trick on Sheriff Brown.After drinking a few beers,we found a can of red paint,climbed the tall water tank in the middle of town,and wrote,on the tank,in bright red letters:Sheriff Brown is an s.o.b.The next day,the town arose to see our glorious sign.Within two hours,Sheriff Brown had my two pals and me in his office.My friends confessed and I lied,denying the truth.No one ever found out.
"Nearly 20 years later,Sheriff Brown\'s name appears on my list.I didn\'t even know if he was still alive.Last weekend,I dialed information in my hometown back in Iowa.Sure enough,there was a Roger Brown still listed.I dialed his number.After a few rings,I heard:`Hello?\' I said:`Sheriff Brown?’ Pause.`Yup.’ `Well,this is Jimmy Calkins.And I want you to know that I did it.’ Pause.`I knew it!’ he yelled back.We had a good laugh and a lively discussion.His closing words were:`Jimmy,I always felt badly for you because your buddies got it off their chest,and I knew you were carrying it around all these years.I want to thank you for calling me...for your sake.’"
Jimmy inspired me to clear up all 101 items on my list.It took me almost two years,but became the springboard and true inspiration for my career as a conflict mediator.No matter how difficult the conflict,crisis or situation,I always remember that it\'s never too late to clear up the past and begin resolution.

它从来太晚
数年前,在出席一个通讯过程中,我经历了最不寻常的过程.老师问我们什么名单,在我们的过去,我们感到羞耻,内疚,遗憾,或不完整.下周他邀请与会者宣读自己的名单出来.这好像是一个非常私人化的过程,但是有\ ' s可一些勇敢的灵魂,在人群中谁当义工.人们阅读他们的清单,煤矿越来越长.3周后,我有101项名单.老师则认为,我们设法使修订道歉的人,或采取一些行动来纠正任何错误.我很认真地想,这怎么能不断提高我国通信,具有远见的疏远只是大家从我的生命.
未来一周内,该男子面熟,举起手,并自告奋勇当这个故事:
"同时,我的名单上,我想起一件事,从高中.长大后,我在一个小城市,在爱荷华州.有网友在城市,我们都喜欢孩子.一天夜里,我的两个哥们,我决定发挥伎俩谢里夫于布朗.喝酒后,几个啤酒,我们发现了一罐红油漆,爬上高耸的水箱中的城市,并写道,在坦克上,在鲜红的信件:治安官布朗是一个s.o.b .第二天,镇出现了,看看我们的光荣标志.两个小时内,布朗治安官了我的两位好朋友,我在他的办公室内.我的朋友交待,我撒谎,否认了真理.从来没有人发现.
"近20年后,布朗治安官\的名字出现在名单上.我即刻\ '笔甚至知道他是否还活着.上周末,我拨打信息在我的家乡早在爱荷华.果然,有一个罗杰布朗仍是上市.我拨打他的电话.几天后,吊环,我听到:`喂?\ '我说:`布朗治安官?'停下来.`啊.' `好了,这是吉米calkins .我想你知道我这样做.'停下来.`我也知道!'他骂回来.我们有了一个良好的笑声和热烈的讨论.他最后的话:`吉米,我一直觉得不好,因为你们的哥们,你宣泄,我知道你携带着它周围所有这些年.我要感谢你叫我… …为了你."
吉米启发了我收拾所有101个项目的名单上.我花了差不多两年时间,但却成了跳板和真正的灵感,我的职业生涯,作为冲突的调解人.不管有多困难,冲突或危机的情况,我会永远记住它\ '美国永远不会太晚清理过去并开始解决.
