Being truly present in the moment means really listening and absorbing other people’s words whether we choose to formulate a reply or not.

Say you dont care – you’ll be a bad person. Don’t say anything – you’ll be a bored to death person.

There is no escape and that for sure…but you know what ? I learn to listen…yeah i know i was kinda forced too but it just shows how there is a good side of everything…oh…sorry! gotta go – my father wants something…:)

Thanks for sharing these thoughts about listening. I often say I was born with a listening impairment. It’s true. I alienated a good friend once by talking about myself so much. The name for it is “Conversational Narcissism”. Here is a link to an article I found helpful.

But don’t beat yourself up, I think you’re a GREAT listener, and it’s just one of the things we all love about you. Nevertheless, thanks for the reminder… you’re spot on that we can all “learn to give that gift” a little better. Hugs back.
