Do you have someone to listen?
Do you ever just have those moments where you feel like no matter whom you speak to, there really is not anyone there really listening to you? I heard this song today while doing my daily ritual of blasting music while getting ready, I heard this song and it just reminded me of so many different situations it could relate to! It seems like something that could really fit everyone at some point in their life.
I know that there are many times in my life where I just felt like No one would listen, and I wished just one person would really understand what I was trying to say! Because of how often I know I have felt that way I have put a lot of effort on a regular basis to trying to be the best listener that I could possibly be, however, we all know that sometimes we just get so preoccupied that we don’t really know how to be great listeners all the time. That was a large point of this blog actually, when you try to talk to people about your personal life it because a very scary road. Usually you already know them and are already vested in them somehow as they are invested in your life, that generally makes people very biased and unable to see both sides of the picture! It is also very hard for most humans to stand beside you when you didn’t do what they thought you should’ve done.
How many people in your life told you to do something a certain way “because I am older I know what is right, and you do not!” then you do what you feel is best and they throw all the nonstop ‘I told you so’ comments you can ever imagine in your face? Those are people who are really listening are they? Aren’t those people who just heard your words but never listened to the feelings behind them? I know that it is hard to find a common ground with people, I understand that when you are vested within a situation it seems so hard to member to take a step back and look at the bigger picture! I hope to be able to remind even just one of you to do that for someone who you know needs it right now!
This world is a crazy place right now, so many things have changed in the last few years and some people just do not understand how to deal with it, some people just need someone to listen to what their feeling and tell them it is okay to be confused or unsure sometimes! No one is perfect; it is your imperfections that make you a beautiful person! Anyone can claim perfection; it is much harder to claim your faults! I will do all that I can to try to listen to anyone who needs it!
