Ever since I was little, I prefer listening than speaking. Maybe because of that, I am a very quiet person. Being a listener allows me to understand how others are. I wouldn't say I can 100% understand them but I will try my best to understand and analyze them. I prefer to interact with the speaker. I mean if it's just listen, then it wouldn't be a conversation at all. Throughout the years, I have became a good listener for few of my friends. I feel that everyone needs a listener to listen to their story. No matter how bad or good your story is, it's worth to let it out.
Due to my work, I am require to be extra observant at all times. I can tell a lot from looking at someone. It's fascinating to learn a lot from just observing someone. I actually really enjoy the process. Of course, being observant have its ups and downs. Sometimes you get to know things that you wish you didn't know. Anyway, being observant allows me to pay closer attentions to things and people I care. And on that note, I truely wish all of you to stop at what you are doing and try to listen and pay more attentions to the people around you. It may be a surprising discovery with a closer look.
Quote of the day: Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a
listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
