“I suspect that the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention And especially if it's given from the heart. When people are talking, there's no need to do anything but receive them. Just take them in. Listen to what they're saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than understanding it. Most of us don't value ourselves or our love enough to know this.” PeopleIfsKnowsWayNeedsGivingHeartPersonsImportantEnoughCareValuesGivenUnderstandingPowerfulAttentionTalkingCommunicationImportant ThingsCaringSuspectsOur LoveJust Listen Book:Kitchen Table Wisdom: Stories that Heal, 10th Anniversary Edition Source: Kitchen Table Wisdom: Stories that Heal, 10th Anniversary Edition
“I believe with all my heart that civilization has produced nothing finer than a man or woman who thinks and practices true tolerance. Some one has said that most of us don't think, we just occasionally rearrange our prejudices. And I suspect that even today, with all the progress we have made in liberal thought, the quality of true tolerance is as rare as the quality of mercy. That men of all creeds have fundamental common objectives is a fact one must learn by the process of education. How to work jointly toward these objectives must be learned by experience.” ThinkingMenBelieveHeartArtMadeSaidFactsTodayBeliefI BelieveProcessCommonEducationQualityPracticeProgressMy HeartCivilizationMercyPrejudiceFundamentalsToleranceObjectivesHaving FunSuspectsCreeds Author:Frank Knox
