Fairy Material


Stop worrying so much about what you’re trying to say, and listen for a while. Though it may seem strange, one very effective way to express yourself is by listening.

Listen, carefully, lovingly and attentively to the world around you. Listen to others and listen to life.

Let go of your assumptions about what you expect to hear. Listen not only with your ears, but also with your heart and spirit.

Pay attention to what life has to say to you. There is no end to the valuable lessons you can learn.

Seems I wrote a post on a version of this thought a while back. It's good to be reminded again to listen and not think so much. ;)

How true that is, Mel!

Much can be learned in silence; listening.

Awesome reminder! And thank you!
