I think there is a beautiful quality about silence. I also think there is something wonderful about listening. A true listener is a rare find and having the ability to listen is an equally rare gift.
One of my constant prayers is the ability to listen to those who need it. I have to admit, however, that one of my greatest challenges in life is my reaction to being cut off/interrupted and ignored. I either become incredibly angry--and it shows--or I become sad and distant.
I need to work on that somehow, but that is certainly one of those things with which only God can help me. I cannot do it alone.
