Listening Heart

Many times what people need is not a brilliant mind that speaks but a special heart that listens

Have you heard people say "I just need someone to talk to."? It isn't because they don't have people to talk to, it is they don't have people who actually take the time to listen to them. You can hold a conversation with individuals all day long but if their heart isn't pure or if they don't have the right intentions; the whole point of the conversation will be null and void.

Yes; sometimes people need advise from brilliant minds. Other times; the skill of listening with a special heart that is pure and unbiased is a gift that keeps on giving.
