“Sound is incredibly important.” Gordon Hempton
To Listen Can you hear what you see, are you hearing what is before you, are your eyes catching sounds in this ever visual world where vision becomes statement, dangled enticingly as empty promise, an aspirated nonsense in a world of fools desiring gloss over substance, when all we need to do is listen.

I find that when I do listen, and take time to appreciate what I hear, life is so much richer for it. And I find too, that I am in tune with others and with self.

I agree! I’ve also avoided making a lot of bad decisions by really listening to what I was hearing.

Yes, way too much sound and visual to really enable listening, it gets harder.
