What We Are Is More

Listening Is More Than Being Quiet. Listening Is Much More Than Silence. Listening Requires Undivided Attention. The Time To Listen Is When Someone Needs To Be Heard. The Time To Deal With A Person With A Problem Is When He Has The Problem. The Time To Listen Is The Time When Our Interest And Love Are Vital To The One Who Seeks Our Ear, Our Heart, Our Help, And Our Empathy.

He Prefers Performance Over Lip Service. We Show Our True Love For Him In Proportion To Our Keeping His Words.

Greatness Is Best Measured By How Well An Individual Responds To The Happenings In Life That Appear Totally Unfair, Unreasonable, And Undeserved. Sometimes We Are Inclined To Put Up With A Situation Rather Than Endure. To Endure Is To Bear Up Under, To Stand Firm Against, To Suffer Without Yielding, To Continue To Be, Or To Exhibit The State Or Power Of Lasting.
