Listen

The problem with conversation is that more often than not, there is no communication. To communicate, one must listen, really listen to the other party. Stand back, this is going to be one of those serious thinking messages.

Human beings, and I use the term loosely, don’t listen. People want to talk, not listen. And, those quiet souls that appear to listen are really just thinking about something else while you talk. Or, they are sneaking in a short nap with their eyes open. That’s what I do.

Most of the problems we have could be cured or at least made better if we had more communication and less conversation. But, that means, we would have to listen. Look out, here comes the serious part.

Most people, not all, have some kind of religious beliefs. They want a "spirit" that they can talk to. That is well and good, but do they listen to what the spirit says? Am I saying that God talks back? Yes. But we have to really listen. I wouldn’t want a God that didn’t talk back.

My beliefs are that He speaks in a still small voice, not a booming thunder. You can think I’m crazy but I have upon occasion, heard Him. I just wish I was a better listener.

He has a lot more that I need to hear.
