THE POWER OF LISTENING

If we are not deaf, we are able to listen. But do we?

Sometimes all we hear is our own voice, yet there is a whole universe (or even multiple dimensions of it) out there, unaffected by our existence.

We all know of at least one vocally enhanced sibling, friend, co-worker...who only talks about themselves - a walking, blabbing advertisement that in some sneaky way implies how great and wonderful they are.

Well, we try not to be like them, but as humans with flaws we sometimes are them. So please sit back, chill and listen. Listen to your children, your hubbies, your friends, your co-workers...Listen to their stories, their problems, their triumphs and defeats...

If you are not deaf, you are able to listen. And maybe you will learn something that makes the universe, or the multiple dimensions of it, a better place.
