The writings of Julius Fan

Post by jufa »

To this writer listening is not an art. It is, from what I can tell, an activity of living, and, when dealing with the human perspective, what men speak upon is always subjective because of the objectivity of personal bias of that which has been indoctrinated into their human minds of prattling interpreters of idealism. All idealism is an extension of the 'sentient Id,' whose birth child is the human Ego.

A good listener mostly turns out to be an excellent speaker, and discerning of rhetorical prattling.

It's all about whether you care or not. The quality of one's listening, much like the quality of one's reasoning, will depend on the level of valuation one places on the subject at hand.

Now that you've had your say, will you answer the question
How[emphasis on 'how', not about 'about'] is listening an attitude?

A tree grows

Post by jufa »

Confucius the Chinese philosopher stated:

Image

But

A seed grows in the silent sound of birth
A thought falls from the mind in the noise of words
Potential has vision of fallen words from lips
Creation has fulfillment in Grace and Wisdom
The power of silence is "The Word of his power." - Heb.1:3
