“To be kind
is more important than to be right.
Many times
what people need is not a brilliant mind that speaks
but a special heart that listens.”
We can all understand this quote.
Just listening helps.
Every one of us
needs ‘a listening ear’ every now and then
to get the help we may need,
even if it’s just to ‘get things off our chest.’
We need to communicate,
it’s just in us as humans,
so when someone needs to talk
— just listen!
Being kind enough to listen
encourages trust, understanding and compassion
for both the one who is talking
and the one who is listening.
Just listening helps.
Clever words are not what is needed,
but kind, ‘merciful’ and sympathetic words
which let the other person know
that we care and love him or her.
Just listening helps.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
