In my last article, I shared that 90 percent of communication is based on body language and tone of voice, rather than the words that are spoken. It reminded me of when I directed One Accord years ago– and after a typical Sunday service, I was always on a mission to catch someone. I always had a list of people to talk to or “kids to catch” in that short time frame between church services and Sunday School. I remember one adult told me later that during these “missions” my body language suggested to her that I was upset as I wasn’t smiling and/or greeting people as I normally did. I was shocked, yet saddened to learn that that was her perception! I can attest 100% that I wasn’t upset – I was just on a mission!

Plus, we will tackle how to properly bid farewell to those non-recyclables in your neck of the woods.
Question: I’m wondering about a light that seems to only be on at night on the traffic lights. It’s a small purple or blueish light that’s near the traffic lights. I’ve tried to figure out what its use is or if it’s a camera. I’ve asked other people what it means and I’ve never met anyone who knows what it is. Thank you!
