For your consideration….
We have had many messages on perspective. Today we are asked to think about a very small part of it, selective hearing.
As children we learned pretty early how to “tune out” what we don’t want to hear. There are lots of clichés about spouses tuning out their partners. It is called selective hearing.
We all can benefit from gaining new and different perspectives from our fellow brothers and sisters and them from us. Most of us would agree with that. Now consider/remember how you feel when someone is shouting, rioting etc. How anxious are we to hear what they have to say? How excited are we to get their perspective? More than likely our selective hearing kicks in.
If we want to be relevant, if we want to get our perspective across, then we should consider how we deliver it.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take….
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Think about getting new perspectives and how we deliver our own.
What made me smile yesterday….
-A beautiful day.
-Finished a good book and started another.
-A day on the boat with the whole family.
-Lunch at Zukey Lake Tavern.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
