To Listen With Love

Listen With Love From “to let go takes love” To “to communicate with love”...

To communicate with love does not mean stop caring, it means I cannot listen for someone else.

To communicate with love does not mean to cut myself off, it is the realization I cannot control another’s speaking.

To communicate with love is not to try to change or blame another, it is to find the spirit and love in every word spoken.

To communicate with love is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome of every conversation is not in my control.

To communicate with love does not mean to care for, but to care about.

To communicate with love does not mean to fix, but to accept another as a beautiful gift.

To communicate with love does not mean to judge, but to allow another the dignity and freedom to express themselves without judgment.

To communicate with love does not mean to deny, but to accept.

To communicate with love does not mean interpreting every word to fit my understanding, but fully embracing every word with an abundance of love and acceptance.

To communicate with love means to connect with another’s soul and spirit.

To communicate with love means listening to another like every word might be their last.

To communicate with love means listening to another like their words have the potential to alter life, as we know it.

To communicate with love means listening to everyone like you would listen to GOD.

To communicate with love means listening to you like you are the only person in the world.
