On
Being Heard
I’m
having breakfast before work. My first
cup of coffee was less than hot. I
mentioned it to the hostess as she came by to check on me.
My
waitress just delivered me a fresh and hot cup of this morning juice.
I
was heard.
They
tuned into our conversation. They
listened and responded in appropriate measure.
I
like being “Heard”. Do you?
We
honor people when we hear them.
We
pay attention to what they say, how they say it. We don’t go into a mindless stupor and nod
while thinking of yesterday’s agenda or today’s laundry list of activities.
We
are in the moment.
Do
you hear me?
Something to
think on,
in about 60
seconds.
