"You'd be wise to listen good."

I spend so much time listening to people spill their guts. When I answer the phone at work, it's so I can listen to a woman tell me her story. When I look up from my computer, it's to listen to a client ask me for something. When I spend time with my friends, somehow they end up telling me things I didn't expect to hear. And I'm cool with listening; I'm a good listener and I understand the importance of having someone listen to you.

There are so many voices doing so much talking in the world! Everyone has an opinion, a plan, a schedule to keep. For some reason I don't have those things all the time. But I think that's ok. We can't all be rambling on and expect to be heard.
