Weather here in Denver is snowing & cold. It is cold just about everywhere in Canada. Elwood City Pennsylvania was 39 degrees, so cold everywhere.
With the word of the day, I had "listen." To pay attention; heed; obey (often followed by to): "Children don't always listen to their parents."
Quotes of the day, I have two today:
"Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply." Stephen R. Coveyand
"The word listen contains the same letters as the word silent." Alfred Brendel
Are you a listener?
If someone consider close comes to you with a concern, maybe a concern you did, do you listen? They come to you with a problem, do you listen? So on and so on, do you listen? Are you silent and willing to understand or are you waiting for that person to take a breathe so you can reply with what "you" want to say??
Do you have an "I'm right & your wrong attitude?" This only prevents you from truly listening to what they are saying, when you make them listen to you instead.
You should be open to exploring their opinions by challenging your own thinking. Do you hijack the conversation? You cannot stay focused on what the other person is saying because you perhaps do not like what they are telling you. You are only telling that person speaking that their thoughts do not matter. Remember they came too you with a cnocern.
Do you cut off the person speaking?? YOu never get to hear the information that the speaker is trying to share with you. You end up damaging your rapport with them. Interrupting and talking over are signals that you're uninterested in what they have to say. We really need to practice being silent more and using the ears God gave us to listen (and hold up your glasses as BP stated!) and maybe learn another perspective, GROWTH. And that is the rest of what DJ has to say.
Went over the story of the stolen prize pigs here in Denver. They were here from Quincy Washington. They were found safe and returned to young owner.
Went over how in Iowa at their State Fair they have a husband calling contest. The winner wins $5 and a ribbon. 😂🤣
Went over This Day in Music History before I started the continued Music list of the top three songs the year you graduated.
