We can learn from each other.

We can collaborate.

We can care for one another.

Especially when it comes to listening.

When someone opens up about their experiences, we can give them a gift.

The gift of our undistracted attention.

Our powerful presence.

Listening from love is therapeutic.

For the sharer.

And the listener.

We can help each other navigate life.

The ups.

The downs.

The loop-the-loops.

The tiny challenges of the moment.

The major crises and beyond.

It all starts with listening.

Being present.

More present.

Like life depends on it.

Because it does.
