We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary in 2008. Our children helped us celebrate with an all expense paid all arranged vacation In Hawaii.

Most of us do not listen with the intent to understand. We listen with the intent to reply.
We are not as interested in what is being said, as we are to what we are going to say.
Empathy involves trying to understand the other person's heart, mind and spirit.
It involves taking the time to consider their motives and feelings.
We need to listen with our eyes and hearts, as well as our ears.
What an impact it would have on our relationships if we would only take time to listen--I mean really listen
