Journaling:
DEAR ME,
LISTENING IS NOT JUST ABOUT NOT TALKING. NOT JUST ABOUT HOLDING YOUR TOUNGE, HEARING THE WORDS. LISTENING IS ABOUT OPENNESS, A WILLINGNESS TO CHANGE. IT’S THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION YOU NEVER THOUGHT TO ASK. IT’S NOT AN ANSWER TO ANYTHING AT ALL.

LISTEN FOR THE RHYTHM AND THE BEAT, MELODY AND TEMPO. LISTEN FROM START TO FINISH. LISTEN TO THE BORING PARTS AND THE PAINFUL PARTS AND THE JUST PLAIN AWFUL PARTS. LISTEN FOR THE MEANING BEHIND WORDS,THE EXPLANATION.

LISTEN TO SILENCE, EVEN IF IT SCARES YOU. LISTEN TO BLACK AND WHITE. LISTEN TO RECKLESSNESS.

LISTEN TO THE FOREST, NOT JUST ONE TREE. WITHOUT SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS, JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS AND PUSHING FOR MORE.

LISTEN WITH YOUR WHOLE BODY. WITH YOUR EARS OPEN, AND YOUR MOUTH CLOSE, YOUR EYES FOCUSED, AND YOUR HEART AT PEACE.

LISTEN TO THE BEATING OF YOUR OWN HEART.
