I thought I listened....
I often thought I listened to my partner.. bit listen without judging, or listening simply to reply, which means I stopped listening at some point to give thought to my answer.. my need to be heard, my need to be right.
I won’t make this mistake again, my partner is the most beautiful, gentle and sensitive soul I’ve ever met in all my life, and from this day on I will listen to her intently.. no response, no judgement, no opinions.. just listen.
To think we can all heal a little simply from being heard is a wonderful thing.. ❤️
