Yes listening takes a bit of practice perhaps, but as you stated, a show of love as well as respect is the result :)<br />Gorgeous salad and I will visit your friend as well :)Magic of Spicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05034283259164629148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858819150296754246.post-68461757859941683012011-07-20T16:27:08.050-06:002011-07-20T16:27:08.050-06:00"We were given two ears but only one mouth, b..."We were given two ears but only one mouth, because listening is twice as hard as talking."<br /><br />I don't know who's quote this is, but it's all so very true. We all have the need to express our thoughts, and feelings, but when we learn the "art of listening"...that's when communication sets in to action! That's what makes us more effective human beings. Listening is taught to all of us in early childhood...but it gets harder, and harder as we grow into adulthood. It's a true gift we can give to others and to ourselves, by listening to our own conscience (selves) as well...that is guided by a "higher power" that can lead to love ourselves first...and than others!<br /><br />Lovely post...as always and a gorgeous, colorful salad, with a "soul"...so thoughtfully, and artistically put together. Velva is a favorite of mine, will stop by her blog to comment.<br /><br />BTW-Bella, I have an award for you to claim on my blog.<br />Congratulations my dear...well deserved!<br />Sending love your way:DDDElisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06067009428999484965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858819150296754246.post-22644135512494223452011-07-20T15:48:25.851-06:002011-07-20T15:48:25.851-06:00What a beautiful, refreshing salad!
