"Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening
when you'd have preferred to talk."

when you'd have preferred to talk."

Even when someone's words won't teach us anything directly, we can learn a great deal about human nature by listening thoughtfully and really thinking about who they are and how they see the world. Sometimes when I start to get bored with someone prattling on, I remember to step back and start really thinking about what makes them tick. When I ask Spirit to show me their divine nature, their life lessons, and what makes them unique and special, I can switch from impatient to fascinated in an instant.
