"Listen"

~To Reveal Myself  Openly and Honestly

Takes the Rawest Kind

 of Courage...

              "How beautiful, how grand and liberating this experience is, when people learn to help each other.  It is impossible to overemphasize the immense need humans have to be really listened to, to be taken seriously, to be understood.

              "Modern psychology has brought it very much to our attention.  At the very heart of psychotherapy

is this type of relationship in which one can tell everything,  just as a little child will tell all to his mother.

              "No one can develop freely in this world and find a full life without feeling understood by at least one person...

              "If I am to see myself clearly, I must open up to a confidant  freely chosen and worthy of such trust.

              "Listen to all the conversations of our world, between nations as well as those between couples.

They are for the most part-dialogues of the deaf."
