To Hear Is Normal, To Listen Is Divine

In a busy world where everybody is focused on themselves and their self growth, listening skills is something that many people don't seem to have. It is very easy to see somebody that will hear what you have to say, but it is quite difficult to get a person that will listen attentively to every thing you have to say even though your words made sense or not.

Getting somebody to listen to you without judging seems like an impossible tasks to achieve. Some will hear but would forget everything you said to them within a space of a few hours. While some will use what you told them about you, against you.

It is is quite sad that nobody actually care about their fellow person. Their care lays in what they stand to gain. These days, friendship seems transactional instead of being genuine and person oriented.

There's a very interesting thing about where I'm from. Everybody is ready to give an advice for free. Probably because they want to look a saint, the bigger man or something. They always try to use themselves as a case study to advice the other man. Tell them your problems and they will give you an advice. However, there is a high probability that you'll here them brag to another person about the advice they gave to you and how that advice has helped you. But if the advice ruined you, they'll most likely not talk about it anymore.

I have not witnessed a lot from life and people. I'm still growing. I'm making one mistake or the other to build experience points. However, after a these many years of life, I have come to understand that being solo is the best given that I'm ready to tell myself the harshest truth there is. I am my own healthy and unhealthy critic.
