Treasure It

Listen

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 2 years ago 1 min read
"I'm Listening"

"The simple act of listening

to someone

and making them feel as if they have truly been heard

is a most treasured gift"

We all need someone

to listen to us,

to get the help we need,

to let off steam

or just for companionship.

It's in our nature.

And there is always that one person

who will just sit down

and listen to us,

no matter what,

and we always feel better afterwards.

This is a treasured gift.

To just listen.

Not judge,

not condemn

or even give advice.

To just listen.

That other person will feel treasured

because they will feel:

"someone heard me, my voice".

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
