Listening, Who Cares?

A Lost Art: Listening Oh, how I struggled to come up with a title for today’s post!  And it’s still not right.  Listening and anything with ‘listening’ in the title is just not intriguing, sexy, or in any way worthy of you clamoring to click on my article to read it.  (At this point I should thank you for reading this far, despite the lame headline!  “Thank you.”)   And this, coming from someone who holds a strong belief that listening is hugely important, in fact, there’s an art to listening.

Although today isn’t officially New Year’s Eve, in sticking with my Monday, Wednesday, Friday posting schedule, today’s article has the honor of being the last Trust Life Today (TLT) post of the year.  Why honor?  Because the first post was on January 1st, which means this post will not only finish up the year of 2011, it also completes one year of me writing for you (and let’s be honest, writing for me too)!! I’ve LOVED every minute of it. Here are a few highlights of 2011: January 1 – the first TLT article appeared January 21 – I retold Continue reading >>
