Another Look at Listening

I'm taking a look at this path

to live better.

And the more I look

the more I find

the key to this path is

listening.

I have company on this path.

Three co-travelers that deserve

my attention,

my focus,

my looking,

my listening.

Three fellow travelers

and answers to prayer to be

an instrument of love, joy, and peace.

So how do I sow love, joy, and peace?

What is the key to live better?

It begins with listening

to the Source of Life,

to my neighbors, and

to my inner spirit.

This is how I sow love,

and joy,

and peace.

By listening in silence

as I travel and

live

better.

When we listen,

we give a gift of valuing.

When we listen,

we receive the gift of sharing.

Valuing and sharing

with the Source of life,

with our neighbors, and

with our inner spirits.

So as I take another look at this path,

I’m taking a closer look

at my three fellow travelers.

I’m taking a look and finding that

listening

is the key.
