There, I said it. (wow, that was tough, but feels good to say)<br /><br />And I also have the yearning to share some deep thoughts/concerns with others but do fear the nonacceptance that might take place. Thankfully I have Jesus.....who, although already knows what I will say....is always there to listen.<br /><br />This was a great post!~*Michelle*~https://www.blogger.com/profile/12973255141669832129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-4607592027405366682010-05-12T04:46:59.186-04:002010-05-12T04:46:59.186-04:00Anne - Listening is loving ... so you were correct...Anne - Listening is loving ... so you were correct both times.Russell Hollowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04257247185461047076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-69491811193731572502010-05-11T22:17:19.950-04:002010-05-11T22:17:19.950-04:00Make that loving listening.Make that <i>loving</i> listening.Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-3410688698731162012010-05-11T22:16:33.814-04:002010-05-11T22:16:33.814-04:00We all need to tell our stories, not be judged, an...<i>We all need to tell our stories, not be judged, and to feel loved.</i><br /><br />Good reason to cultivate the skill of listening?Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-33136212150572541912010-05-11T20:51:27.926-04:002010-05-11T20:51:27.926-04:00Jane - Thank our Father.

I sometimes have to adjust my face very quickly -- multiquicksecondly, for want of a better term -- but the overall willlingness to listen is always "there." I know if people hadn't stepped up and listened to me and, instead, just thought I was nuts/didn't "fit", I'd probably have continued down some pretty less-than-healthy paths.caryjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488368153291827383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-26598245701590175492010-05-11T13:25:26.263-04:002010-05-11T13:25:26.263-04:00i think morrie was right.i think morrie was right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060208329342951108.post-43044760661066363242010-05-10T22:19:04.923-04:002010-05-10T22:19:04.923-04:00Sometimes Russ you say just the right thing at the...Sometimes Russ you say just the right thing at the right time-thank you I needed that :)SeeJaneSellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06300358114779246842noreply@blogger.com
