just listen

It's not easy to get someone's attention, believe me. Most of us are too caught up with our own lives, that we subconsciously prevent ourselves from parting with too much of our sympathy for a fellow human being. The truth is, sometimes we're not even required to interfere emotionally, however we continue to restrain ourselves from performing the most basic, yet most profound act of showing a deep, sort of unconditional love for someone, simply by listening to them.
I truly believe that most of the conflicts that surround our lives could have been prevented, had those involved in them actually listened to one another. I'd plunge deeper into this topic, but I've been severely deprived of my sleep these last couple of days and I can barely tap the letters off the keyboard right now, so I'm signing off.
Toodles, and do come back.
