validation

Validation is a temporary suspension or transcendence of our own perspective, that allows us to cross over the bridge to the world of the other, and be there with him, in his own subjective experience, and understand his reality. Validation conveys to the other, that you know that their subjective experience is as valid as your own. To validate the other's message, doesn't mean that you agree with his/her perception, or that it reflects your subjective experience. It merely recognizes that in any communication between two people, there would always be two views, that no "objective view" is possible, and every report of any experience is an "interpretation" which is the truth for each person. Watch this movie ahead, to see the power of validation!
