in my mind

A character in this reality, each of us is a character in each episode. Everyone else is watching in another reality. Who is to say what is known? What if all that is known is just perceived? Everything we know is almost everything that we have been told. If our ancestors figured their own truths, why are we not looking for our own?

Hearing and Listening

It has been said that talkers are not listeners. listening does not mean hearing. Although you hear, it does not mean you are listening.

There are different ways of hearing; hearing what you want and hearing what is actually being
said. We can call the prior selective listening. We all do it. Especially in arguments. When someone is telling you something about you, you become defensive. What was meant to help us or make us realized something about ourselves has now made us upset.

Lets start hearing &am; listening. Lets be open to what is being said. Lets not select what we hear (Selective hearing).
