The Challenge of Listening

The Challenge of Listening
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn’t make any sense.
From Essential Rumi
by Coleman Barks
Are you really listening or just waiting to talk?
The point of listening is understanding.
Join Kristy Swanson and me as we continue our Conversation about
Conversations and Listening!
Wow what a show this was! When we are truly curious about
what the other person is saying it’s so much easier to Listen
not just to what they’re saying, the content, but we also hear
the emotion, what’s not being said, and we’re really seeing
the other person, receiving the other person which is what
all of us truly want.
