Our listening creates a sanctuary for the homeless parts within another person.
When we listen, we offer with our attention an opportunity for wholeness.
Those who bless and serve life find a place of belonging and strength, a refuge.
The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen.
Helping, fixing, and serving represent three different ways of seeing life. When you help, you see life as weak. when you fix, you see life as broken. When you serve, you see life as whole. Fixing and helping may be the work of the ego, and service the work of the soul.
The spiritual is inclusive. It is the deepest sense of belonging and participation.We all participate in the spiritual at all times, whether we know it or not.
