“Be a good listener, your ears will never get you in trouble.”

Do you hear the words of a conversation but do not hear the message? Not listening effectively can and is the downfall of many a good relationship. Being silent and listening falls into the highest form of respect and love and listening closely and replying well is the highest perfection in communication. Don’t be accused of not respecting, not listening, or not sharing with your loved ones. Hearing what is really said gains information and insight and then caring and really showing empathy helps you understand their feelings. When you act on the needs of others it shows a measure of your respect and when you genuinely listen it says, “You are important! You are of great value!” Remember, love and respect begins with listening so stay tuned in and keep the volume on high.
