Communication is a shared responsibility. It is relational. It is reciprocal. There is the giver and the receiver. The person expressing themselves and the listener. The writer and the reader. The musician and the serenaded.
It is a gift to deeply listen and truly hear what someone says from their heart and mind. When we listen not only with our ears but also with our eyes, our heart, our wonder, it is then when we witness one another.
In giving deep listening presence in that moment, we receive the light, shadow, color, and design of someone’s heart and mind.
To give; what a gift. To receive; what a gift.
