Listening..

Please, please, do not turn off your ears when you hear something that you think you might "not believe in" or "not agree with." Words of wisdom can come from both the youngest, most innocent child and the man who has been through hell and back. They can come from a middle-class mom and a 22-year-old revolutionary. They can come from the sky, and the moon, and the sun, and the stars. They are whispered to us in the rustling of the winds in the leaves and branches of the trees. They are repeated, like a metronome, with every step we take as our feet tap the ground. They can even be in the words of any other person's posts on websites like facebook. So do not close your mind and your heart every time you hear an opinionated beginning. Who knows what that person has gone through, who they were before and who they have now become. Just remember to always listen to your own intuition, and question everything. The questions are more important than the answers, anyway.
