Awhile ago I wrote about Listening BEing part of and
essential to the gift Sincerity. What I am aware of Today is that the gift of
Listening is one that I can [and dare I say should] give to myself.
Often. With intention.
It is NOT all that different from the one I give to another,
and yet it is wholly singular, too.
Sometimes I go through an entire day without really
listening to myself. Without taking the time to pay attention and BE Present
and just LISTEN.
It isn’t so odd, really, there is so much to distract me.
BEsides, isn’t spending all that time giving myself the gift of Listening just
selfish and self-serving?!
Strange, the questions I ask, and seem to answer without
giving them a thought, really…
When I DO gift myself with Listening I discover myself in
new and often wonderful [though nearly as often disturbing] ways. I find out
what it is that is BEhind my Hopes, underneath my Desires, and wrapped tight
inside my Questions.
I discern my BEliefs. I encounter my Values. And above and
BEyond all that, I learn myself.
I am taught what I teach others about how to treat me.
And oh that is rich to mine in the midst of all the noise
and Worldly commotion…
I love you, Currie
