Relationships, both good and bad, are influenced by our ability to communicate. Whether we are talking about our clients, the people we work for, the people who work for us, or even our family and friends -- long-lasting happiness and success, most of the time, is a direct result of the impact we have on others and they have on us. It might seem simple, but it is really the little things that have a positive impact which builds and nurtures the direction of our lives. And here is the thing: this is nothing new. The concept of building and maintaining relationships, and communicating effectively, is as old as business itself. Fifty years ago, we would not have been talking about it; it was just the way things were done. Technology has made communication easier, but in the process, we have lost the individual, personal contact we had with our clients. Nowadays, we can email, text, and tweet at will, but we are not connecting. We can reach the top on our own, but it may not be as rewarding or enjoyable. Relationships are based on shared experiences; for example, a movie is more enjoyable in a big theater with other people than when watching it alone at home."

"Kasten looks back at her involvement in the women's movement from the late 1960s into the 1980s. ... There is a poignant honesty to her unstinting self-criticism and acknowledgments of her frailties. ... A well-crafted, contemplative chronicle of a woman's journey through psychological, political, sexual, and social turmoil." -Kirkus Reviews A Certain Time, sequel to Kate Kasten's first memoir Reasonable People, follows the pseudonymous Anne Lang as she gradually immerses herself in the feminist movement of the '70s and early '80s. More than a reflection of this extraordinary era, Anne's (Kasten's) intimate story, written in the third person, reveals the triumphs and mortifications attending a journey of unyielding certainties: Interrupted while nattering on about herself in a group of her peers, ("Who cares?") she finally learns to hold back occasionally and just listen.She takes on a (dead) (universally revered) existentialist for his sexist language, and actually gets the critique published.She writes a feminist comedy act and takes it on the road (Dutch Reformed Christians enjoy it. Drunken college boys boo her off the stage).In this era, virtually any occupation apart from homemaking, secretarial work, nursing and teaching didn't exist for women. It is hard to imagine now, and for that the feminist movement's intense cultural and political struggle is responsible.Kasten enters into that struggle with actions that surprise even herself.

Last night, they slept together under the shooting stars. This afternoon, two Deputies stuck them in separate stinking jail cells. How the hell?
