Time spent having an amazing conversation with good people is one of the great, free experiences in life.
We spend an awful lot of time talking and an unfortunate amount of time waiting our turn to speak again. This occurs at the expense of actually listening to the other person. When you speak, you regurgitate that which you already know. When you listen, you learn something you didn’t. When you have an amazing conversation everyone leaves different than when they went in. Sometimes we learn something about ourselves.
It’s downright cathartic.
The Tao of Bill 
Wise words, Bill. I am guilty of that which you say, for sure. I’ll shut up more and listen. 🙂

Somehow I don’t believe you have an issue with listening. You are probably as good a listener as you are a person

This is great advice Billy :O) When I first moved to France my French wasn’t very good and so I was forced to listen and concentrate on what others had to say and, do you know what, life became a whole lot more interesting :O) xx

I was just saying to someone that I’m so lucky that my hairdresser is young, but incredibly knowledgeable about politics and social issues. I love to hear her perspective on things while my foils are “cooking”!
